Abstract

This data informs about the characteristics of elderly patients over 75 with subarachnoid hemorrhage whose World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) grade were I to III. We retrospectively collected data from medical records in our hospital regarding physiological symptoms, laboratory data, radiological data on admission, and outcomes at discharge. Our article entitled "Clinical characteristics of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in the elderly over 75; would temporal muscle be a potential prognostic factor as an indicator of sarcopenia? [1]" was based on this data. Remarkably, this is the first dataset on temporal muscle thickness/area and other characteristics of elderly patients over 75 with subarachnoid hemorrhage whose WFNS grade were I to III. Temporal muscle thickness and area were large in the elderly patients with SAH whose outcome were favorable.
