Background: Remote cerebellar hemorrhage (RCH) is an extremely rare and potentially fatal complication after supratentorial craniotomy. However, the exact pathophysiological mechanism of RCH remains unclear, so clinicians often lack clinical experience in prevention, early diagnosis, and standardized treatment.
Observations: The authors retrospectively analyzed data of patients who underwent surgery for supratentorial lesions at their center between 2012 and 2021.
Background: Recent evidence has demonstrated that rosiglitazone can attenuate cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Some studies have shown that rosiglitazone can suppress inflammation and immune responses after SAH. However, the precise molecular mechanisms by which cerebral vasospasm is attenuated is not clear.

SAP was experimentally induced in rats by injection of 4% sodium taurocholate in the retrograde pancreatic duct. Three study groups were evaluated: Group I (sham-operated animals), Group II (SAP animals), and Group III (SAP animals treated with RES at 20 mg/kg/body weight, 5 min after induction of SAP).
