Article Synopsis
- - Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a serious condition caused by bleeding in the brain, leading to about 3.5 million cases worldwide and responsible for nearly 30% of new strokes, making it the deadliest type of stroke.
- - The progression of ICH involves multiple stages, including vessel rupture, hematoma growth, and secondary damage to the brain, with the majority of cases linked to specific vascular diseases.
- - While there's currently no definitive treatment, emerging strategies aim to manage bleeding, assist in safely removing blood clots, and minimize further brain injury, though effective prevention measures for survivors are still under development.
