Hemiparesis without responsible hematomas in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage undergoing early aneurysmal repair

The presence of hemiparesis on arrival in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is presumed to affect their prognosis, and intracranial hematomas with a mass effect responsible for the hemiparesis are frequently observed in these patients. The purpose of this study was to clarify the characteristics and outcomes of patients who presented with hemiparesis on arrival and showed no responsible hematomas (hemiparesis w/o hematoma) having a mass effect on computed tomography.
