Intracranial hemorrhage associated with primary and secondary tumors.
Intracranial hemorrhages are a recognized but relatively uncommon complication of brain tumors. Metastatic tumors are more often associated with hemorrhages than are primary tumors. The types of hemorrhages found include intraparenchymal, subarachnoid, subdural, and epidural. Treatment must be directed at both the hemorrhage and the underlying tumor.
