BackgroundWhite matter injury (WMI) has been observed after experimental intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The supporting clinical data have been sparse. We assessed the presence, extent, and progression of WMI in patients with ICH.MethodsWe performed a retrospective review of data from 65 consecutive patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH who had undergone baseline brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) within 7 days of ICH onset and repeat MRI afterward. We used the Fazekas scale (FZKS) to grade the severity of WMI. The clinical and imaging characteristics of the patients with and without WMI progression (WMIP) were compared using uni- and multivariate logistic regression analyses.ResultsWe observed WMIP in 23 patients (35.4%). WMIP was noted in both hemispheres but more commonly ipsilateral to the ICH (33% vs. 21%). The mean total FZKS score had increased from 3 (interquartile range [IQR], 1–4) at baseline to 4 (IQR, 2–5) on repeat MRI (P< 0.0001). Patients with lobar ICH had a greater median FZKS score than those with deep ICH (median, 3; IQR, 2–4; vs. 1.5, IQR, 1–3.25;P= 0.027). The baseline parenchymal ICH volume (odds ratio [OR], 1.067; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.018–1.119;P= 0.007) and ventricular volume on baseline MRI (OR, 1.073; 95% CI, 1.019–1.130;P= 0.007) were predictors of WMIP after adjustment. Multivariate analyses showed an independent association between WMIP and unfavorable 3-month outcomes (OR, 5.196; 95% CI, 1.059–25.483;P= 0.042).ConclusionsWMI will progress over time in patients with ICH, and WMIP has been associated with worse outcomes. This novel finding could represent a potential therapeutic target. Future prospective larger studies are needed to confirm our findings.
