ABSTRACT
Hypertension is the commonest cause of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) but non-hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhages (NHICH) are not rare. We report three interesting cases of NHICH subsequent to amyloid angiopathy, alcoholic hepatitis and amphetamine abuse. They suggest the importance of recognizing these conditions and need for urgent specific therapy which may play a vital role in therapeutic planning and prevention of ICH.
