Anevrysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage with electrocardiographic abnormalities: a case report

• Dorra Loghmari

Background: The interaction between cardiovascular system and cerebral damage in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have been described frequently. Electrocardiographic (ECG) alterations occurring during the course of SAH have been previously reported.
Case report: we report a case of woman who had electrocardiographic abnormalities. Computer tomography (CT) angiography revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with cerebral artery aneurysm. ST-elevation regressed later after intubation.
Conclusion: This case illustrates the importance of neurological injury as one of the differential diagnoses while managing ECG changes in cardiovascular disease.
