An acute subdural hematoma (aSDH) is a rare complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and is associated with poor clinical condition on admission and poor outcome. Risk factors for the development of an aSDH from aneurysmal rupture are unknown and may help our understanding of how an aSDH develops. ⋯ Increasing age, sentinel headache, ICH, and aneurysms at the posterior communicating artery are independent risk factors for an aSDH. Patients with a basilar or vertebral aneurysm have a low risk of an aSDH.
