Popis: | Intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the presence of blood in the brain parenchyma. It is a neurologic emergency and may carry severe morbidity and death. This chapter focuses mainly on spontaneous, nontraumatic ICH (ie, hemorrhage not related to trauma, arteriovenous malformation, cerebral aneurysm, or tumor). ICH accounts for 15% to 20% of all new strokes annually. Among the US general population, the incidence is 15 cases per 100,000 person-years. |
