Abstract

We describe an analysis of 214 patients with CT-proven basal ganglia aor thalamic hemorrhage. Based on CT flndings and medical records, the volume of hematoma was correlated with degree of hypertension and clinical features. Patients were grouped into 4 groups; basal ganglia hemorrhage without intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) (group 1, n&76), basal ganglia hemorrhage with IVH (group 2, n&68), thalamic hemorrhage without IVH (group 3, n&5), and thalamic hemorrhage with IVH (group 4, n&65). Among these groups, those with IVH (group 2 and 4) had higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure than patients without IVH (group 1, 3,P
