Abstract

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from a ruptured intracranial aneurysm represents a major health issue. The natural history, rebleeding, fibrinolytic therapy and vasospasm are reviewed in this article. Current evaluation of the existing data suggests that early aneurysm surgery and aggressive postoperative volume expansion therapy constitute the best presently approach to patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms.
