Causes of cerebral hemorrhage
Any cause of cerebral vascular rupture and bleeding is called cerebral hemorrhage, including traumatic cerebral hemorrhage and non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage. Traumatic cerebral hemorrhage, as the name suggests, is caused by head trauma, while the most common cause of non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage is hypertension. Under the long-term impact of high blood pressure and high blood flow, numerous microaneurysms form in the brain's blood vessels. When blood pressure suddenly increases under certain conditions, these microaneurysms may rupture and bleed. The second most common cause is cerebral amyloid angiopathy, where blood vessels become aged, brittle, and weak, leading to rupture and bleeding. The third most common cause includes intracranial aneurysms and vascular malformations, which also partly cause hemorrhage. The fourth most common cause involves intracranial tumors, meningiomas, melanomas, and others. The fifth most common cause is related to hematological disorders, such as leukemia and deficiencies in clotting factors. Lastly, another cause is the prolonged use of anticoagulant and antiplatelet medications, which also contribute to cerebral hemorrhage.
