title: Central pain complicating infarction following subarachnoid haemorrhage.
abstract: It is well recognised that delayed ischaemia following subarachnoid haemorrhage can lead to infarction. Seven such cases are described in which the latter led to the development of central pain, often called the 'thalamic syndrome'. Treatment of this condition remains difficult particularly if there is delay in the recognition of the problem.
