Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains a life-threatening disease that carries significant morbidity and mortality despite recent diagnostic and management advances. Various conditions are associated with increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhage. Understanding the etiology of these conditions and their pathophysiological contribution to ICH will likely lead to better therapeutic and preventative measures and improve the morbidity and mortality associated with intracerebral hemorrhage. We will review the current literature regarding important etiologies/risk factors of intracerebral hemorrhage.
