The clinical course and outcomes of non-aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhages in a single-center retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Non-aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhages (SAHs) are thought to have a benign clinical course compared to aneurysmal SAHs. The aim of this study is to report the clinical course and outcomes of non-aneurysmal SAHs in a large single-center study.
