Özet

Ischemic electrocardiographic changes, elevations in cardiac-specific markers such as troponin and creatinine phosphokinase NIB, segmental wall motion abnormalities, and myocardial dysfunction may occur after central nervous system events such as subarachnoid hemorrhage, subdural hematoma, and ischemic stroke. The pathophysiology remains unclear, but a catecholamine-induced neurocardiogenic injury has been mentioned as a causative factor. We reported a case of coexisting subarachnoid hemorrhage and subdural hematoma with ischemic electrocardiography changes, increases in cardiac-specific enzymes, and a regional wall motion abnormality despite normal epicardial coronary arteries. It is very important to differentiate neurogenic stunned myocardium from myocardial dysfunction caused by coronary artery disease in patients with intracranial hemorrhages for appropriately managing the treatment of cases.
