Unusual case of hypertonic hemorrhage.
Hemorrhage arose simultaneously in the leftside putamen and the brain stem region in a 45-year-old hypertonic woman. The cause of death, which occurred on the seventh day after the incident, was the recurrence of hemorrhage into the brain stem, which was disclosed at autopsy. Possible causes of recurrent brain stem hemorrhage are discussed.
