Figure 1

Perimesencephalic and non-perimesencephalic SAH. In the upper row CT scans of two patients with perimesencephalic SAH are illustrated. Whereas in the top left-hand the center of the hemorrhage is located anterior the brainstem, in the top right-hand corner the hemorrhage is located more left-sided. In the lower row CT scans of two patients with non-perimesencephalic SAH are illustrated. In both patients the bleedings are not only located anterior the midbrain, but also enlarging into the sylvian and interhemispheric cisterns. Also in contrast to the upper row these patients had a hydrocephalus with enlargement of the temporal horns.
