Background: Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) occurs after the restoration of blood flow to a previously low-flow, low-pressure region of the cerebral vasculature, which subsequently responds with chronic compensatory vasodilation, leading to a dysregulated state. Sudden restoration of normal blood flow can overwhelm the vasculature leading to intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). Separately, the Windkessel phenomenon describes the capacity for elastic vessels to expand with systolic pressure and decompress with diastole, thereby suppressing distal pulse pressure.
