title: Post-coital intra-cerebral venous hemorrhage in a 78-year-old man with jugular valve incompetence: a case report.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Spontaneous intra-cerebral hemorrhage can occur in patients with venous disease due to obstructed venous outflow.
  
  
  METHODS
  We report the case of a 78-year-old Caucasian man with jugular valve incompetence who experienced an intra-cerebral temporo-occipital hemorrhage following sexual intercourse. He had no other risk factors for an intra-cerebral hemorrhage.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of intra-cerebral hemorrhage due to jugular valve incompetence in association with the physical exertion associated with sexual intercourse.
