Resumen

La hemorragia intracerebral durante el periodo de gestación tiene una incidencia de alrededor de 30 casos por cada 100 000 embarazos, catalogándose una emergencia médica catastrófica con alta mortalidad materna infantil. En el Ecuador donde los trastornos hipertensivos del embarazo contribuyen una de las primeras causas de muerte maternas, fetal, por lo tanto, su identificación y manejo multidisciplinario son vitales, en este artículo se revisará la epidemiología, etiología, diagnóstico y manejo terapéutico.
