Thunderclap Headache

View through CrossRef
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome can cause thunderclap headache, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and stroke. The clinical presentation can be similar to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and therefore requires rapid angiography. Angiographic findings of vasculopathy and resolution of clinical symptoms and imaging abnormalities support this diagnosis. This syndrome is most often incited following pregnancy or the ingestion of a vasoactive medication.
