The patients were a 73 years old man and a 29 years olf woman presented with comatose mentality of sudden onset. They showed massive ICH in deep portion of white matter on intial brain CT scan, but were reported as glioblastoma multiforme in the pathologic diagnosis after operation. Glioblastoma multiforme presenting with ICH is a rare condition, and is known for less than 5%.
