Morphologic Changes of Cerebral Veins in Hypertensive Rats: Venous Collagenosis Is Associated with Hypertension
The aims of this study were to determine whether arterial hypertension could affect the venous system of brain and to find out the consequent pathologic changes of cerebral veins.

Multiple Spontaneous Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhages
We report an unusual case where there were spontaneous, simultaneous and sequential, thalamic, cerebellar, and cerebral hemorrhages in a patient with known hypertension.

From Basilar Artery Dolichoectasia to Basilar Artery Aneurysm: Natural History in Images
Dolichoectasia is a medical term used to describe elongated and dilated vessels that follow a tortuous and windy course with frequent loops and curves. We are presenting the natural history in images of a normal basilar artery becoming dolichoectatic, followed by the formation of an aneurysm, over a period of many years, in 60-year-old Caucasian man with a long history of secondary progressive multiple sclerosis and uncontrolled arterial hypertension, who was diagnosed with dolichoectasia of basilar artery in 2008.

Isolated Unilateral Ptosis due to Paramedian Midbrain Infarction
A 59-year-old man who had hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and left eye glaucoma developed sudden vertigo and left ptosis; he did not notice diplopia. He visited our hospital on day 3 after onset and neurologic examination showed left ptosis. His left visual acuity was counting fingers, and the light reflex was sluggish owing to glaucoma. Pupil sizes were equal, and eye movements and the lower lid were unremarkable. Magnetic resonance images revealed an acute infarction of the left paramedian midbrain.

Vasospastic Amaurosis Fugax Diagnosed by Cerebral Angiography
We report a case of recurrent monocular blindness presumed to be caused by vasospasm, demonstrated by digital subtraction angiography. Case report: A 65-year-old man presented with recurrent visual loss in the left eye for 2 years. He had histories of hypertension, cigarette smoking, and May–Thurner syndrome. The symptom occurred variably from twice a day to once a week and usually lasted for 5 minutes. Brain magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance angiography, and ophthalmologic evaluation did not reveal any abnormality.

Report of Dramatic Improvement after a Lumboperitoneal Shunt Procedure in a Case of Anticoagulation Therapy-Resistant Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), which typically progresses from either acute or subacute onset, presents with symptoms related to intracranial hypertension (e.g., headache and papilledema) and brain parenchymal lesions (e.g., aphasia and hemiplegia). Anticoagulation therapy is generally accepted as a treatment for CVT and often leads to good clinical outcomes. However, we experienced a case of CVT with an uncommon clinical course. The patient was a 63-year-old man who presented with headache, papilledema, visual loss, and diplopia; his condition gradually deteriorated, and he was diagnosed with CVT via cerebral angiography.

Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Improved Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome due to Renovascular Hypertension
A 51-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of preceding throbbing headache and tonic convulsions. Headache and convulsive seizure disappeared and his consciousness recovered to alert within 2 hours after onset. Neurological examination showed no abnormal findings. Laboratory examinations revealed high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (179 mg/dL), renin (42 ng/mL/hour), aldosterone (265 pg/mL), noradrenaline (1031 pg/mL), and dopamine (79 pg/mL). In brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, but not the diffusion-weighted image, showed high signal intensities in...

Risk of Intracerebral Hemorrhage after Emergency Department Discharges for Hypertension
Recent literature suggests that acute rises in blood pressure may precede intracerebral hemorrhage. We therefore hypothesized that patients discharged from the emergency department with hypertension face an increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhage in subsequent weeks.

Hemostatic Markers and Long-Term Risk of Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Postmenopausal Women
The objective of this analysis was to test whether selected hemostatic factors measured years before the onset of ICH could identify patients at higher risk for future ICH.

Assessment of Risk of Aneurysmal Rupture in Patients with Normotensives, Controlled Hypertension, and Uncontrolled Hypertension
The prevalence of hypertension in patients with intracranial aneurysms has been an increased concern, but it is not well understood if uncontrolled hypertension has impact on aneurysmal rupture. The aim of this study was to determine whether the risk of aneurysmal rupture is higher in uncontrolled hypertensive cohorts than in controlled hypertensive cohorts and normotensive cohorts.

Bilateral Vein of Trolard Thrombosis
We report 2 cases of bilateral vein of Trolard thrombosis; one with and the other without dural sinus involvement. To our knowledge, there have been no cases of bilateral vein of Trolard thrombosis reported in literature. The clinical presentation of cerebral venous thrombosis is variable; patients can present with isolated intracranial hypertension, focal neurological abnormalities, seizures, or encephalopathy.
