Sachin Baldawa

Basal ganglia hemorrhage, one of the most devastating forms of cerebrovascular disease, is often as a result of poorly controlled long standing hypertension. Hypertension often leads to development of solitary intracerebral hematoma. The occurrence of multiple simultaneous intracerebral hemorrhages due to hypertension in same or different vascular territories is rare. We report the occurrence of simultaneous bilateral hypertensive putaminal hemorrhage appearing as mirror image (Owl eye appearance) in a 60 years old gentleman and discuss the probable pathophysiological mechanisms
