A cerebellar hemorrhage is defined as an intracerebral hemorrhage in the region of the cerebellum.
Epidemiology
Cerebellar hemorrhages account for approximately 5-10 % of all intracerebral hemorrhages.
Etiology
The most common cause of a cerebellar intracerebral hemorrhage is a hypertensive crisis, with the Cerebellum, after the Basal ganglia, representing the second most common site of hemorrhage.
Treatment
Surgical decompression should be considered in patients with an axial hemorrhage diameter of > 3 cm and GCS ≤ 13 and\/or hydrocephalus or brainstem compression [^1].
