Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) predominantly affects women, accounting for 65% of cases. Women have a 1.3 times higher relative risk than men, with the incidence rising particularly in women aged 55-85 years. Women also have a higher prevalence of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (IAs), especially after the age of 50 years, and are at greater risk of aneurysm growth and rupture. This study aimed to isolate the influence of sex on rupture rate, bleeding severity, functional outcomes, and complications by using a matched cohort, while also examining the impact of sex on aneurysm localization and multiplicity.
