Multiple Simultaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhages

Abstract
THE SIMULTANEOUS occurrence of intracerebral hemorrhages (ICHs) in different arterial territories is uncommon.1-3 The predisposing pathologic factors and underlying mechanisms involved in this clinical condition have not been clearly defined.2,3 Historically, multiple simultaneous intracerebral hemorrhages (SIHs) were associated with hematologic disorders, vasculitis, anticoagulant therapy, illicit drug use, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, or were due to multiple infarctions with hemorrhagic transformation.4,5
