ICH Case study(Intracerebral Hemorrhage, Intracranial Hemorrhage)

1. 서론

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) represent critical neurosurgical emergencies characterized by the accumulation of blood within the cranial cavity, which can occur due to various etiologies and often leads to severe neurological deficits and increased morbidity and mortality. The pathophysiology of ICH involves the rupture of small blood vessels, typically due to chronic conditions such as hypertension, which leads to microaneurysms and vessel wall degeneration. Other contributing factors include arteriovenous malformations, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, trauma, and the use of anticoagulant medications. Understanding the complexities surrounding these hemorrhagic events is essential for timely diagnosis and management. The clinical presentation of intracerebral hemorrhage is often abrupt, with patients frequently experiencing acute onset of headache, nausea, vomiting, altered levels of consciousness, and focal neurological deficits depending on…(생략)
