BACKGROUND: Our study retrospectively reviewed the presentation, neuro-radiological findings, and outcomes of eight adult @entity1 presenting at our institution with @entity510 ( @entity510 ), which was subsequently proven to be due to @entity49 ( @entity49 ). METHODS: We reviewed the case records and neuroimaging findings of eight @entity1 diagnosed with @entity510 and @entity49 over a span of two years at our institution, a tertiary care centre in Western India. All details pertaining to their presentation, clinical findings, neuroimaging, management, and outcome following therapy with anticoagulants were collected until @entity1 discharge. RESULTS: There were a total of eight @entity1 , with the average age being 34 years (range 25-42). Only one @entity1 was female. Six @entity1 had a history of recent binge drinking. None of the @entity1 had a past or family history of common risk factors for @entity715 . All @entity1 presented acutely, with @entity10 (n=6) and @entity410 (n=6) being the most common presenting features, occurring in three-quarters of the @entity1 examined. Non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) was the initial imaging study for all but one of the @entity1 and showed cortical @entity510 (cSAH) without basilar @entity548 . Magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance venography (MRI/MRV) confirmed the underlying @entity49 . Unfractionated heparin was used in all cases. Seven @entity1 improved and were discharged on oral anticoagulation. The eighth @entity1 died. CONCLUSION: Localised cSAH with sparing of basal cisterns can be a presentation for @entity49 . In @entity1 with cSAH, MRI/MRV can be useful to make a diagnosis of @entity49 . Anticoagulation for @entity49 , even in the presence of @entity510 was related to seven out of eight @entity1 being discharged.
