Multiple lobar intracerebral hemorrhage and cerebral amyloid angiopathy in the setting of ApoE Є2: a case report of the disease course and call for improved treatment modalities

Abstract

We describe a case of multiple cerebral amyloid angiopathy-associated intracerebral hemorrhages (ICH) occurring at multi-focal lobar sites of the brain. A review and discussion of the current literature on the importance of Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotyping in prediction of ICH outcome and recurrence follows.
