Intracerebral Hemorrhage and Risk of Seizures and Epilepsy in Babies and Children
With an incidence rate of roughly 3 per 100,000 children, a stroke is one of the top ten causes of death in children and is as common as brain tumor. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 8% to 13% of all strokes and is caused by a wide spectrum of disorders. When it comes to babies and children, trauma is the leading cause of intracerebral hemorrhage. Bleeding diathesis and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) are the next two main causes.
