Bilateral intracerebral hypertonic haemorrhage

Bilateral hypertonic intracerebral haemorrhage is a rare pathological entity. CT-scan enables precise diagnostics, but in a case of bilateral intracerebral bleeding it is difficult to make decision whether to operate or not. In our group of 65 operated patients with intracerebral haemorrhage in the time interval 1985-1987 there was only one with bilateral bleeding. After the surgical removal of blood clots from one hemisphere the patient recovered.
