BACKGROUND: Dynamic CT angiography (dCTA) contrast extravasation, known as the "dynamic spot sign", can predict hematoma expansion (HE) in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Recent reports suggest the phase of spot sign appearance is related to the magnitude of HE. We used dCTA to explore the association between the phase of spot sign appearance and HE, clinical outcome, and contrast extravasation rates.
METHODS: We assessed consecutive patients who presented with primary ICH within 4.5 hours from symptom onset who underwent a standardized dCTA protocol and were spot sign positive. The independent variable was the phase of spot sign appearance. The primary outcome was significant HE (either 6 mL or 33% growth). Secondary outcomes included total absolute HE, mortality, and discharge mRS. Mann-Whitney U, Fisher's exact test, and logistic regression were used, as appropriate.
RESULTS: Of the 35 patients with spot signs, 27/35 (77%) appeared in the arterial phase and 8/35 (23%) appeared in the venous phase. Thirty patients had follow-up CT scans. Significant HE was seen in 14/23 (60.87%) and 3/7 (42.86%) of arterial and venous cohorts, respectively (p = 0.67). The sensitivity and specificity in predicting significant HE were 82% and 31% for the arterial phase and 18% and 69% for the venous phase, respectively. There was a non-significant trend towards greater total HE, in-hospital mortality, and discharge mRS of 4-6 in the arterial spot sign cohort. Arterial spot signs demonstrated a higher median contrast extravasation rate (0.137 mL/min) compared to venous spot signs (0.109 mL/min).
CONCLUSION: Our exploratory analyses suggest that spot sign appearance in the arterial phase may be more likely associated with HE and poorer prognosis in ICH. This may be related to higher extravasation rates of arterial phase spot signs. However, further studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to confirm the findings.
