  • Title: Chronic spinal arachnoiditis following intracranial subarachnoid haemorrhage.
    Author: Augustijn P, Vanneste J, Davies G.
    Journal: Clin Neurol Neurosurg; 1989; 91(4):347-50. PubMed ID: 2555097.
    Abstract:
    A 54-year-old woman presented with progressive gait imbalance and increased urinary frequency, associated with spinal arachnoiditis. The symptoms started after the occurrence of communicating hydrocephalus as a sequel of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), and were initially attributed to post-SAH vasospasm, decompensating hydrocephalus and/or periventricular leuko-encephalopathy. Further clinical deterioration led to the diagnosis of thoracic spinal arachnoiditis, as a second complication of SAH.
