Intraventricular hemorrhage has been found to occur in 35% of moderate to severe traumatic brain injuries. [3] Thus the hemorrhage usually does not occur without extensive associated damage, and so the outcome is rarely good. [4] [5]
A commonly used classification system of germinal matrix hemorrhage is the sonographic grading system proposed by Papile: [3] [citation needed] grade I - hemorrhage is confined to the germinal matrix. grade II - intraventricular hemorrhage without ventricular dilatation; grade III - intraventricular hemorrhage with ventricular dilatation
The preferred treatment of Spetzler-Martin grade 1 and 2 AVMs in young, healthy patients is surgical resection due to the relatively small risk of neurological damage compared to the high lifetime risk of hemorrhage. Grade 3 AVMs may or may not be amenable to surgery. Grade 4 and 5 AVMs are not usually surgically treated. [23]
The other form is intraventricular hemorrhage). [1] Intraparenchymal hemorrhage accounts for approximately 8-13% of all strokes and results from a wide spectrum of disorders. It is more likely to result in death or major disability than ischemic stroke or subarachnoid hemorrhage, and therefore constitutes an immediate medical emergency.

Instead the blood goes through a collection of small vessels from arteries to veins. These collection of abnormal small vessels is termed as "nidus". This condition happens in 0.1% of the population has a risk of 2 to 4% per year for intracranial bleeding. Once ruptured, it results in intraparenchymal hemorrhage, intraventricular hemorrhage and ...

The current understanding of the pathophysiology of cerebral edema after traumatic brain injury or intracerebral hemorrhage is incomplete. [8] [54] Current treatment therapies aimed at cerebral edema and increased intracranial pressure are effective at reducing intracranial hypertension but have unclear impacts on functional outcomes.
