A 19-year-old, previously healthy woman presented with a sudden onset of headache and an altered mental status. Her vital signs were stable, and physical examinations were significant only for an expressive aphasia and a defect in her visual fi eld. A head CT scan revealed a left temporoparietal intracerebral hemorrhage. While she was monitored in the ICU, her symptoms improved. About 24 h later, her headache suddenly worsened, and she quickly lost consciousness. Case Report.
