Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage from right vertebral artery (NVHA) is a rare medical condition in which bleeding occurs in the space between the brain and the membranes that cover it. In most cases, NVHA is caused by a tear in the vertebral artery, which is located on the right side of the neck. This tear can be caused by a number of factors, including trauma, aneurysm, or a congenital defect.
NVHA can cause a number of medical complications, including headaches, dizziness, nausea, confusion, and loss of consciousness. It can also result in seizures, stroke, and coma. In some cases, NVHA can lead to death.
NVHA is typically diagnosed with an MRI scan or a CT scan. These tests can reveal the presence of any bleeding or other damage to the brain. In some cases, the doctor may order a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) to check for blood in the cerebrospinal fluid. Other tests, such as angiography or angioplasty, may also be used to confirm the diagnosis.
There are a number of risk factors that can increase the likelihood of developing NVHA. These include: high blood pressure, smoking, obesity, use of certain medications, and a family history of bleeding disorders. People who have had a previous stroke, a head injury, or a tumor in the brain are also at an increased risk of developing NVHA.
NVHA can lead to a number of complications, including seizures, stroke, coma, and even death. Additionally, NVHA can cause a number of neurological problems, such as difficulty speaking, memory loss, and difficulty with balance and coordination.
Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage from the right vertebral artery (VAs) is a rare but serious condition that requires prompt and aggressive treatment. If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications, including stroke, paralysis, and even death. Fortunately, there are a variety of treat...
