Spontaneous Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Children

Abstract

Technics of cerebral angiography have now been adapted for safe and effective routine use in children with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage, and it is to be hoped that more of these congenital vascular lesions will be demonstrated at an early age. Many will then be appropriately corrected by specific operative measures before a further bleeding episode or progressive cerebral anoxia imposes additional neurologic deficit on these young patients.
