Hemorrhagic cerebellar infarcts, often involving major arteries, typically present without initial bleeding signs. Most patients remain stable or improve, even when on anticoagulation.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Vascular Neurology
  • Neuroradiology

Background:

  • Cerebellar hemorrhagic infarcts are uncommon but can lead to significant neurological deficits.
  • Understanding their vascular origins, stroke mechanisms, and clinical progression is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the vascular anatomy, stroke mechanisms, and clinical course of patients with cerebellar hemorrhagic infarcts.
  • To compare the characteristics of posterior circulation hemorrhagic infarcts with those in the anterior circulation.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 17 patients with 26 cerebellar hemorrhagic infarcts.
  • Review of vascular territories (superior cerebellar artery, posterior inferior cerebellar artery, anterior inferior cerebellar artery), imaging findings, and clinical data.

  • Assessment of stroke mechanisms and management, including anticoagulation status.

    • Main Results:

    • Sixteen infarcts involved the superior cerebellar artery territory, nine the posterior inferior cerebellar artery, and one the anterior inferior cerebellar artery.
    • Infarcts frequently involved the full territory of the supplying artery (73%).
    • Hemorrhagic transformation was detected on serial scans within 15 days, often not apparent on initial imaging. Most patients were stable or improving, and anticoagulation was generally well-tolerated.

    Conclusions:

    • Cerebellar hemorrhagic infarcts often stem from embolic events and share similarities in causes, imaging, and consequences with anterior circulation infarcts.
    • Early detection via serial imaging is important, and anticoagulation may be safely continued in select cases.
    • These findings aid in understanding and managing posterior circulation strokes.
