Abstract
Atraumatic convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage describes spontaneous bleeding into the convexities of the brain sulci without parenchymal involvement. Its many causes include reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome, cerebral sinus venous thrombosis, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome and (in older people) cerebral amyloid angiopathy. We describe the clinical and radiological features of non-traumatic convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage with its various presentations, causes, treatments and prognoses, and use clinical vignettes to highlight important clinical points and pitfalls.
