	MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Intracerebral hemorrhage
		An intracerebral hemorrhage is bleeding in the brain caused by the rupture of a blood vessel within the head.
		Blood may accumulate in the brain tissues itself, or in the space between the brain and the membranes covering it.
		The bleeding may be isolated to part of one hemisphere (lobar intracerebral hemorrhage) or it may occur in other brain structures, such as the thalamus, basal ganglia, pons, or cerebellum (deep intracerebral hemorrhage).

		Onset is at age 40-60 with headaches, brain hemorrhage often in the parietal lobe, strokes, and dementia.
		Brain hemorrhage is rare as the amyloid protein is deposited in blood vessels in the eye and meninges (brain coverings), but not in the brain itself.
		Brain biopsy (surgical removal of a small piece of brain tissue) may show characteristic amyloid deposits, but is rarely performed, as the risk may not be justifiable in the absence of effective treatment for CAA.

		While the brain is by far the most complex object on earth, it is soft and vulnerable with a consistency of firm pudding.
		Edema - is a swelling of the brain.
		The brain is hollow; the interior cavities, called ventricles, contain cerebrospinal fluid circulating from the ventricles up over the surface of the brain where the cerebrospinal fluid is absorbed.

	Spontaneous parenchymal cerebral hemorrhage Review
		Intracerebral Hemorrhage (brain hemorrhage) is an important cause of stroke, especially in Asians and fls.
		Amyloid angiopathy causes both single and recurrent lobar hemorrhages and is probably the most common cause of lobar hemorrhage in the elderly.
		If the CAT scan shows that the cerebellar hemorrhage is compressing the brain stem or causing hydrcephalus then surgical interventions which include lateral ventricle decompression, clot removal or posterior fossa decompression is indicated.

	Brain aneurysm, cerebral vasospasm, arteriovenous malformation (AVM) information
		The peak age for hemorrhage from an AVM is somewhere in the late teens (age 15-20 yrs).
		The hemorrhage itself is usually within the substance of the brain (intraparenychmal hemorrhage), but also may be subarachnoid (outer or under surfaces of the brain), or within the fluid filled spaces of the brain (intraventricular), or just under the leather covering of the brain (subdural).
		Hemorrhage rates: The average (annual) rate of hemorrhage for a newly diagnosed AVM that has not bled before is somewhere between 2-4% per year.

	Neuroimaging of Brain Hemorrhage
		Accurate identification of acute hemorrhage is a critical step in planning appropriate therapy; the correct characterization of underlying pathology, such as neoplasia, vascular malformation, or infarction, is often of equal importance.
		Primary hypertensive hemorrhage must be distinguished from cerebral infarction with secondary bleeding on both pathoanatomic and histopathologic grounds --despite the strong association of both with chronic arterial hypertension.
		Hemorrhage due to amyloid angiopathy almost always occurs in the cerebral cortex and subcortical white matter, and lesions often contain a component of subarachnoid blood.

	MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Hemorrhagic stroke
		The brain is very sensitive to bleeding and damage can occur very rapidly, either because of the presence of the blood itself, or because the fluid increases pressure on the brain and harms it by pressing it against the skull.
		The surrounding tissues of the brain resist the expansion of the bleeding, which is finally contained by forming a mass (hematoma).
		The most important test to confirm the presence of a brain hemorrhage is a CT scan, which provides pictures of the brain.

	Cerebral hemorrhage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Subarachnoid hemorrhage, which accounts for 5 to 10 percent of strokes, is one of the deadliest type of strokes.
		Strategies to protect the brain during this type of stroke include blood sugar and blood pressure control, adequate oxygen and intravenous fluids, detection and treatment of the cause of bleeding, and constant monitoring (usually with the Glasgow Coma Scale) and immediate treatment for complications from bleeding into or around the brain.
		Intracerebral hemorrhages may be caused by burst aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations, but are most often caused by hypertension, which can cause the delicate blood vessels in the brain to burst.

		Brain injuries typically fall into two categories: those caused by a traumatic event and those caused by lack of oxygen to the brain.
		Brain trauma might result from a car or truck accident, slip and fall accident, construction accident, fall from a ladder, sports injury, or birth trauma.
		Brain injuries caused by hypoxia are those that starve the brain of oxygen, such as a stroke, hemorrhage, aneurysm, or suffocation.

		While a headache in normal circumstances wouldn't prompt people to think that their brains were bleeding, the same headache while under the effects of LSD might seem to take on greater significance.
		Yet, as an example of the difficulty of researching the brain, the risk of hemorrhage associated with daily use of aspirin continues to be debated, despite the fact that it is a highly researched subject.
		LSD does not cause the brain to bleed, but it may affect blood flow to the brain: It is structurally similar to drugs like ergotamine, which are used to control vasoconstriction and dilation related to migraine.

		Those who sustain concussion, hemorrhage, significant loss of consciousness, coma, and/or skull fractures are typically diagnosed as having sustained a "moderate" to "severe" traumatic brain injury.
		The resulting impairments suffered by the "moderate" to "severe" traumatic brain injury victim can generally be related to the original insult, although in case after case insurance companies and their lawyers contest these relationships.
		This is not to infer that one need be comatose to be classified as having sustained a “severe” traumatic brain injury, but comatose individuals have clearly sustained a “severe” traumatic brain injury irrespective of its potential transient nature.

	Brain herniation Medical Information
		A brain herniation is the displacement of brain tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, and blood vessels outside the compartments in the head that they normally occupy.
		Brain herniations are the most common secondary effect of expanding masses in the brain.

	Stroke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A hemorrhagic stroke, or cerebral hemorrhage, is a form of stroke that occurs when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures or bleeds.
		Other immediate strategies to protect the brain during stroke include ensuring that blood sugar is as normal as possible (such as commencement of an insulin sliding scale in known diabetics), and that the stroke patient is receiving adequate oxygen and intravenous fluids.
		Wepfer also identified the main arteries supplying the brain, the vertebral and carotid arteries, and identified the cause of ischemic stroke when he suggested that apoplexy might be caused by a blockage to those vessels.

		Predominantly, hemorrhages of the basal ganglia involve the putamen and are fed by the lenticulostriate arteries.
		If the hemorrhage is large enough and in the appropriate location, it may result in noncommunicating or obstructive hydrocephalus by compressing the foramen of Monro, the third ventricle, or the aqueduct of Sylvius.
		Hypertensive hemorrhages in the cerebellum (see Picture 2, Picture 3) tend to occur adjacent to the dentate nucleus or in the deep white matter, depending on the perforating branches of the superior cerebellar or posterior inferior cerebellar arteries.
