Benign versus sinister aetiologies underlying basal cistern subarachnoid haemorrhage: a case series

A balance between avoiding excessive investigation and overlooking what may be a mimic of a venous perimesencephalic hemorrhage is important. To refine and establish more definitive indications on when to perform computed tomography angiogram, digital subtraction angiography, delayed angiography and magnetic resonance imaging in this context requires future research to focus on large-scale prospective multicenter studies with robust data.
