  • Note:—IQR indicates interquartile range; PICA, posterior inferior cerebellar artery; EVD, external ventricular drain.

  • a Data in parentheses are percentages except where indicated.

  • b No culprit lesion identified on repeat DSA examinations.

  • c Three aneurysms, 2 treated by endovascular coiling, and 1, by surgical clipping.

  • d In case of >1 treated aneurysm, this reflects the most likely source of hemorrhage.
