Objective: This study is to discuss CT performances and direct surgical strategy as well as therapeutic effect of patients who have rupture hemorrhage of intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm with complications of intracranial hematoma and cerebral hernia. Methods: CT performances and treatment of 14 patients who have rupture hemorrhage of intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm with complications of intracranial hematoma and cerebral hernia in our hospital from March, 2019 to March, 2021 were reviewed. The relationship between hematoma caused by intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm and position of the aneurysm was analyzed. Besides, surgical processing keys were discussed. Results: For all selected patients, intracranial hemorrhage is proved to be caused by rupture of aneurysm. Among them, there are 2 cases of anterior communicating aneurysms, 3 cases of posterior communicating aneurysms, and 9 cases of middle cerebral aneurysms. According to exploration, we found 1 case of multiple aneurysm, which is the combination of a middle cerebral aneurysm (the responsible aneurysm) and ipsilateral posterior communicating aneurysm. There were two cases of intraoperative rupture. In this study, 3 patients died. According to GOS grading at 3 months after the operation, there were 1 case of V-grade (good recovery), 3 cases of IV-grade (self-maintenance), 5 cases of III-grade (severe disabled), 2 cases of II-grade (persistent vegetative state) and 3 cases of I-grade (died). Conclusions: Emergency microsurgical treatment can lower the death rate of cerebral hernia caused by intracranial anterior circulation aneurysm with intracranial hematoma and recover the neurological functions to the maximum extent.
