Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in a patient with dual autoimmune disorders. Perioperative challenges and management

Abstract


Autoimmune disorders (AIDs) are known to be associated with intracranial aneurysms; however, the coexistence of dual AIDs is a rare entity. Perioperative neuroanesthetic management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is typically complicated and challenging in such patients. In this report, we describe the successful management of a case of aSAH complicated by coexistent multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. A multidisciplinary team approach is warranted to manage such complicated cases.
