Intraventricular hemorrhage classification

Some of the more common causes of primary intraventricular hemorrhage in adults include

Arterial hypertension

Vascular malformations

aneurysm (e.g. PICA aneurysms have a tendency to fill the 4th ventricle, with little basal cistern blood)

Intraventricular arteriovenous malformations (AVM)

subependymal cavernous malformations

anticoagulation therapy/coagulopathy

Intraventricular tumors

ependymoma

choroid plexus / intraventricular metastases

adjacent parenchymal tumors (e.g. glioblastoma)
