Decrease in cortical vein opacification predicts outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

Conclusions Development of decreased venous filling on CTA is associated with poor outcome after aSAH. This association suggests that venous hemodynamics may be reflective of, or contribute to, the pathophysiological mechanisms of brain injury after aSAH. Larger prospective studies are necessary to substantiate our findings.
