L'hémorragie intracérébrale, appelée aussi hémorragie intraparenchymateuse (un des 4 types d'hémorragies cérébrales) est un accident vasculaire cérébral provoqué par la rupture d'une artère cérébrale qui entraîne une hémorragie au sein du parenchyme à l'origine d'un hématome dilacérant le tissu cérébral.
