There are three types of hemorhage that can occur in the same patient. They are subdural hemorhage, intraparenchymal hemorhage (from contusion), or subarachnoid. Subdural hemorhages are identified by the crescent-shaped shape that compresses and overlies the brain.
What are the causes of hemorhage? The following are possible causes of hemorhaging, either sudden or severe:
- Traumatic injury can result from car accidents, bullet wounds or falls.
- Embolis (Objects that get stuck in blood vessels, reducing blood flow)

- An aneurysm is a bulge that forms in blood vessels.
