Abstract
- Intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) following aneurysmal rupture is found in 34% of the previous literature. However, hypertensive ICH concurrent with subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) due to an aneurysm rupture is very unusual with only four cases, to our knowledge, having been previously reported in the literature. We describe a patient who presented with aneurysmal SAH concurrent with hypertensive ICH and review of the literature.
