The pathophysiology of intracerebral haemorrhage
2006
Spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage carries a high mortality rate and treatment
of the disease raises more questions then answers. Mass effect, ischaemia and toxicity
of blood components are responsible for brain tissue damage. Initially occurring
disturbances of cerebral blood flow have a temporary character and do not
play a key role in the pathology of intracerebral haematoma. Oedema formatting in
the 24–48 hours after intracerebral bleeding is the result of multidirectional processes.
The pathological mechanism that underlines it is the function of activation of
systemic complement and cascade of coagulation. In the light of these findings,
further clinical and experimental investigations should be focused on these factors.
