Introduction:
Intracerebral hemorrhage represents approximately 20% of all strokes. In spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage the essential etiological factor is arterial hypertension, and the most frequent site the putamen and lobes of the cerebrum (lobar hematoma). The mortality is higher than in cerebral infarct, although the long-term prognosis is similar.
Development:
We review the most relevant forms of presentation and clinical findings of intracerebral hemorrhage in adults, which show a combination of symptoms common to all types of hematoma and those symptoms which depend on their site. We also analyse the factors and studies which have sought to recognize variables predicting morbimortality.
