DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2016.12.103
Abstract: BACKGROUND Acute hydrocephalus (AH) is commonly encountered after spontaneous or traumatic intracranial bleeding in adults. In the setting of AH, external ventricular drainage is usually proposed as the urgent management. But in rare occasions, AH… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2020.01.163
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension (SIH) remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Non-specific clinical features and a reluctance to treat without confirmatory imaging evidence undermine management. Investigations are often insensitive, expensive with many patients continuing to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s1474-4422(21)00423-3
Abstract: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is caused by loss of CSF at the level of the spine. The most frequent symptom of this disorder is orthostatic headache, with the headache worsening in the upright position and subsiding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bjh.17500
Abstract: Severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 20 9 10/l) could cause spontaneous intracranial haemorrhage (ICH). Platelet count has been shown to be a poor predictor of haemorrhage in patients with haematological disorders. Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are… read more here.
