Subarachnoid hemorrhage due to an aneurysm is a significant medical problem with high morbidity and mortality. A good and
patient-specific approach to an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage can lead to optimal management of the possible early
and late complications and improve the patient"s prognosis, mortality and morbidity. Thanks to various preclinical/clinical studies,
there is now science-based evidence on the pathophysiology of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and possible methods for
its treatment, with the information being constantly updated, modified and errors revealed. Cerebral vasospasm after aneurysmal
subarachnoid hemorrhage, one of the most important late complications, can cause the patient"s neurological situation to deteriorate
postoperatively and significantly increases the risks of morbidity and mortality while the condition can be managed partially with up
to date information. An appropriate and patient-specific approach makes it possible to decrease the severity of cerebral vasospasm
and its late complications. In this article, various treatment strategies for cerebral vasospasm due to aneurysmal subarachnoid
hemorrhage are reviewed and their effect on possible pathophysiologic pathways and the results are evaluated.
