Thalamic hemorrhage

The thalamus is the largest oval gray matter nucleus in the midbrain, located on both sides of the third ventricle. The left and right thalamus are connected by a gray matter mass (called the middle mass). The thalamus is closely related to the anatomy of the third ventricle and the lateral ventricle, and only the ventricular wall is separated. Therefore, thalamic hemorrhage often breaks into the ventricle, which can cause the mold of the lateral ventricle body, or flow to the third ventricle through the interventricular foramen and return to both sides Lateral ventricle, resulting in bilateral lateral ventricle triangle hemorrhage, and large amount of bleeding, easy to flow into the third and fourth ventricles. Thalamic hemorrhage is prone to obstructive hydrocephalus after breaking into the ventricle. The thalamic hemorrhage caused obstructive hydrocephalus. The patient was comatose at the time of the onset, and was relieved after conservative medical treatment, the obstruction was relieved, and consciousness was restored. Coma led to death at the onset. Thalamic hemorrhage broke into the ventricle in a large amount, 23 cases were greater than 15ml, indicating that the greater the amount of bleeding, the greater the possibility of breaking into the ventricle.
