Remote hypertensive intracerebral haematoma following clipping of an intracranial aneurysm

We report a case of a 58-year-old woman who presented with an aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. Immediately following clipping of this aneurysm, she had a spontaneous hypertensive bleed in the contralateral hemisphere. Although very unusual, hypertensive episodes following aneurysmal subarachnoid...
