Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage to reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome: Case report

Abstract

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in many countries. Hemorrhagic stroke occurs due to the internal hemorrhage inside the brain as a result of blood vessel rupture. Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is multifocal arterial constriction and dilation in the cerebral vasculature and can cause subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We present a case of diagnostic studies of sICH to RCVS in a patient with alcohol chronic consumption history.
