The purpose of this review is to increase the knowledge about diagnosis and treatment of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH), which is an infrequent and critical condition with a high risk of severe morbidity and mortality. The outcome is improved by correct and efficient diagnosis and early treatment, including aneurysm repair. General practitioners and doctors in the departments for emergency medicine should be aware of the symptoms of aSAH.
