He and his family denied history of trauma, fall, or anticoagulant use. This occurred 1  week after presenting to the same emergency department with a headache and being discharged home after negative head computed tomography, 2 months after spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage involving the right central sulcus, and 11 months after transient ischemic attack symptoms with negative wo rkup.
