Abstract:
62 patients with SHA were treated in the Hospital of the UNICAMP during 1984/85; all were diagnosticated with CT and/or angiography. Only 52 patients were submitted to surgery. Out of these, only 18 patients (35%) presented VS preoperatively. Until the 6th day after beginning of the hemorrhage, 34 patients non presenting VS were operated, 7 (20%) of these suffered clinical deterioration after surgery. The mortality rate lies by 23% (12 patients), 41% of them (5 patients) presented) VS preoperatively. Of the 10 patients non operated 3 died.
