Hemorragia cerebral
Abstract
La hemorragia cerebral consiste en la salida brusca de sangre al parénquima cerebral y con la hemorragia subaracnoidea, representan el 20 % de los ictus. Tiene una alta mortalidad y depende de la topografía del sangrado y el tamaño de los mismos. La hipertensión arterial constituye el principal factor de riesgo para el daño vascular y la ruptura de los vasos sanguíneos cerebrales, sin dejar de mencionar otras causas como: los tumores, malformaciones vasculares, el uso de fibrinolíticos y la angiopatía cerebral amiloidea en pacientes ancianos. El tratamiento médico está dirigido a aliviar el aumento de la presión intracraneal y en casos específicos se recomienda la evacuación quirúrgica del hematoma.
Palabras clave: hemorragia cerebral, hipertensión arterial, malformación vascular, angiopatía cerebral amiloide.
