  • Look Inside

I have reported a case of the subarachno-ideal hemorrhage, which showed very high fever.

Case: a man, 58 years old.

He complained frequently the feeling of co-ngestion, dizziness, palpitation and sleeplessn-ess since several years ago. In 1949. X. he camplained nausea, vomiting, headache and his consciousness was affected severely.

Kernig's sign, stiffness of the neck were observed, no paralysis.

Reflexes: loss of abdominal reflex, loss of knee jerk, and no pyramidal sign. Cerebros-pinal fluid, initial pressure 295mm H 2O, Que-ckenstedt's sign negative, hemorrhagic.

His temperature raised very high (over 40℃) from the onset of the present attack, pulse rate 120/min., respiratory rate 30/min. Slight leucocytosis (9800).

No marked physiological findings indicating any pyogenic infection, and high doses of peni-cillin was administrated, but his fever did not decreased.

In several days he died

Autopsy findings: No infection of the lung or other viscera.Brain. Diffuse subarachnoideal hemorrhage at the lower half of the cerebral hemispher. At the medial surface, just below the rostral part of the corpus callosum a relatively cir-cumscribed blood clot, finges-tip sized, was found. In the midst of this blood clot a ruptured aneurysm of the anterior communi-cating artery was observed.

This blood clot located at the preoptic area,

just rostral to the hypothalamus,

Thinking about the pathogenesis of the present high fever, there may be 2 factors.

1. diffuse subarachnoideal hemorhage.

2. the blood clot localized in the preoptic area. Only by the former cause this fever-seems to be unusual high. The preoptic area, according to Ranson and his collaborators, considered to be the center of the heat loss, the destruction of which followed hyperther-mia, then I consider the later cause might be responsible chiefly for the present high fever.
