Overview
Pathophysiology
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a result of :
- Saccular aneurysms (responsible for most SAHs)
- Fusiform aneurysms (dilatation of the entire circumference of the vessel that may in part be formed due to atherosclerosis)
- Mycotic aneurysms (infected emboli due to infective endocarditis)
Saccular aneurysms
Saccular (berry) aneurysms are responsible for most cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Multiple factors play a role in formation of a saccular aneurysms. Saccular aneurysms usually results from degenerative change in the vessel wall following:[1]
- Hemodynamic stress (turbulent blood flow) which it may result in excessive tear and breakdown of the internal elastic lamina which it progress to lack of elastic lamina.
It is also thought that inflammatory process is also play a role in pathogenesis of aneurysms.[2]
Common associated conditions may include:[3][4][5]
- Hypertension
- Cigarette smoking
- Connective tissue disease
- Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
- Pseudoxanthoma elasticum
The role for genetic factors in pathogenesis of aneurysmal formation has been approved. However, the exact pathogenesis remains unknown. It is thought that some connective tissue disease may result in arterial wall weakness and non-laminar flow pattern of blood, which is then progress to tear and breakdown of the wall.[4][5]
Histopathologic findings
Unruptured aneurysms wall may present with complete absence of endothelial lining.
However, ruptured aneurysm walls may present with Inflammatory cells (T cell and macrophage infiltration) in addition to complete absence of endothelial lining.
Histological types of aneurysm walls may be identified as follow:[6]
Histological types | Consecutive stages of aneurysm walls | Chance of aneurysmal rupture |
---|---|---|
Type A |
|
|
Type B |
|
|
Type C |
|
|
Type D |
|
|
Nonaneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
