Multiple simultaneous intracerebral hematomas. Clinical, radiologic, and pathologic findings in two patients.
The simultaneous occurrence of two intracerebral hematomas in different arterial territories of the brain is rare. We report the clinical, radiologic, and post-mortem findings in two such cases. The absence of readily identifiable vascular disease in such patients suggests that a subtle degenerative process may be active in the pathogenesis of this condition.
