Abstract: The diagnosis of spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage can be arrived clinically through the observation of various symptoms and signs, whereby a list of the main pathophysiological processes is provided together with the relative causes. Not all cases of spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage are presented with easily recognized symptoms. For this reason a broad diagnosis is required and in this regard the author highlights four methods to properly diagnose and treat this illness. These methods entail the mundane art of history taking, the hunt-down attitude in the clinical examination, the judicious use of investigative procedures and the adequate neurosurgical intervention. Each method is then illustrated with relevant case studies. It is of utmost importance that cases are treated with adequate management in order to reduce the morbidity and mortality of this ailment.
