    Subarachnoid hemorrhage is the output of blood into the subarachnoid space, and is considered a neurological emergency because it has a high morbidity and mortality. Its incidence is about 10 cases per 100,000 population per year, hypertension and smoking are the main risk factors. 80% of subarachnoid hemorrhages, are secondary to rupture of cerebral aneurysms, the remaining 20% is due to arteriovenous malformations (AVM), illicit drugs, amyloid angiopathy and superficial siderosis, venous sinus thrombosis, arterial dissection, infections, coagulation disorders, pituitary apoplexy and head trauma. The diagnostic study of choice is computed tomography (CT) without contrast. Treatment should be performed in specialized centers, embolization of unruptured aneurysms is recommended as a minimally invasive treatment as it is associated with low morbidity and mortality.
