Abstract Background and aims Catastrophic intracerebral haemorrhage in golden age people. A case series from a rural set up . Methods This is a population-based study in a rural area in order to to determine catastrophic intracerebral haemorrhage incidence over a 10-year period. A retrospective registry, of elderly patients (90 years old) admitted to a secondary hospital with a diagnosis of catastrophic intracerebral haemorrhage was performed. Results The diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography scan in all hospitalised cases. During the 10-year period, 30 cases of catastrophic intracerebral haemorrhage were recorded (20 men, 10 women; mean age 95 years, range of age between 90 and 100 years. Conclusions Conservative treatment in all 30 cases. Poor outcome or death in 38(95%) and good outcome in 2 (5%). Catastrophic haemorrhage remains a critical neurological emergency with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly in elderly populations. Conflict of interest
