Clinical Outcomes of Metastatic Intra-cerebral Hemorrhage and Role of Acute Radiotherapy (P3.077)
CONCLUSIONS: Early recognition of metastatic disease as the etiology of ICH is important, particularly when it is the presenting manifestation. Despite the overall poor prognosis of metastatic cancer, early radiotherapy may increase survival and offer quality of life in selected group of patients. A larger case series is needed.Disclosure: Dr. Afzal has nothing to disclose. Dr. Mendoza has nothing to disclose. Dr. Latorre has nothing to disclose.

The Effects of High Dose Corticosteroids for MS Relapse on Blood Pressure: A Pilot Study (P2.089)
Conclusions: MS patients treated with high dose CR for relapses lose the expected nighttime diastolic BP decrease. Further, those with a history or family history of HTN show a significant increase in systolic BP. Loss of nocturnal dip correlates with a significant increase in stroke risk. This pilot data suggests high dose CR treatment for MS relapses may have implications for cerebrovascular and cardiovascular health.Disclosure: Dr. Renn has nothing to disclose.
