Abstract:
Authors analysed 553 CT-scan confirmed cases of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. According to anatomical sites, incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage was greatest in the putamen with 45%, followed by 21.1%, in the thalamus, 16.3% in the subcortex, 5.9% in the cerebellum, 5.9% in the ventricles and 4.8% in the pons. According to hematoma sites, mortality rates were 23.3% in the putamen, 28.4% in the thalamus, 32.2% in the subcortex, 59.2% in the pons, 21.2% in the ventricles. The overall mortality rate was 28%.
