  • Title: [Intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage and cocaine].

    Abstract:
    Medical problems related to cocaine consumption are not rare in our environment; however, to this respect, descriptions in the spanish literature are scarce. We present three cases of intracerebral hemorrhage which occurred after cocaine consumption (intranasal route in two cases and intravenous route in one case). In the three cases, another associated risk factor was observed (alcohol in one case, hypertension in other case, arteriovenous malformation in the third case). We comment on the pathophysiological theories of the cause of bleeding, high-lighting the routine search of this association.
