Abstract

Background: Atypical intracerebral hemorrhage is a common form of primary manifestation of vascular malformations. Objective: The aim of the present study is to determine clues to the cause of bleeding according to hemorrhage pattern (lobar, basal ganglia, infratentorial). Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 343 consecutive neurosurgical patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), who were admitted to our neurosurgical department between 2006 and 2016. The study cohort includes only neurosurgical patients. Patients who underwent treatment by neurologists are not represented in this study. We assessed location of hemorrhage, hematoma volumes to rule out differences and predicitve variables for final outcome. Results: In 171 cases (49.9%) vascular malformations, such as arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), cavernomas, dural fistulas and aneurysms were the cause of bleeding. 172 (50.1%) patients suffered from an intracerebral hemorrhage due to amyloid angiopathy or long standing hypertension. In patients with infratentorial hemorrhage a malformation was more frequently detected as in patients with supratentorial hemorrhage (36% vs. 16%, OR 2.9 [1.8;4.9], p
