Intracranial Hemorrhage treatment in Dhaka Bangladesh

What is an Intracranial Hemorrhage?

Think of it as bleeding that happens inside the skull. Instead of blood flowing smoothly through vessels, it leaks into the brain tissue or the spaces around it. That leaked blood increases pressure, squeezes brain tissue, and can cause sudden damage.

Some bleeds are small, others are catastrophic. It may come from a burst vessel, uncontrolled hypertension, or even trauma from a road accident.

Types of Intracranial Hemorrhage

Not all hemorrhages are the same, and treatment depends heavily on where the blood is located:

Intracerebral Hemorrhage: bleeding directly inside the brain tissue. Common in stroke patients with high blood pressure.
Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: bleeding in the space around the brain, often from a ruptured aneurysm.
Subdural Hemorrhage: blood collects under the dura (the brain’s covering), sometimes after a head injury.
Epidural Hemorrhage: bleeding between the skull and dura, usually from trauma or skull fracture.

Symptoms & Risk factors

Warning signs often appear suddenly. High blood pressure, head trauma, smoking, and aneurysms increase the risk. Uncontrolled hypertension is one of the most common cases. Some of the common symptoms are:

Severe, unusual headache that won’t settle
Nausea or repeated vomiting
Sudden weakness, often on one side
Slurred speech or confusion
Loss of consciousness

Treatment approach

The treatment approach depends on the size of the bleed and the patient’s condition upon arrival. After completing the diagnosis, the required treatment plan is discussed with the patient. Families often worry if surgery is always necessary. The truth is, not all patients need it. But in a life-threatening situation, surgery is what keeps a person alive. A part of our treatment modus operandi, subject to the status of the patient:

Emergency Surgery: when blood clots or swelling threatens brain function.
Endoscopic: Invasive Surgery for selected cases, reducing trauma and recovery time.
Critical Care Monitoring: to control pressure, prevent further bleeding, and support breathing.
Medication Support: for stabilizing blood pressure, preventing seizures, and reducing brain swelling.
