ABSTRACT

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating type of stroke that occurs worldwide. Previous experimental studies reported that the neuronal destruction involved in ICH-induced brain injury included the primary injury caused by hematoma occupying and the secondary injury caused by hematoma degradation products. Conventional Western medical treatment typically applies a combination of medication and surgery, which reduces mortality but fails to achieve desired outcomes in post-operative rehabilitation at any time. This report presented a case of cerebral hemorrhage, whose hematoma and accompanying symptoms were significantly absorbed and alleviated, respectively, after receiving an acupuncture treatment.
