Hypertensive intra cerebral bleeds is the commonest cause of hemorrhagic stroke with high mortality. The decision about the surgical intervention in intra cerebral hematoma remains controversial.

Thirty eight adult patients meeting the inclusion criteria were included in this study, basal ganglia is the commonest site of bleed with male predominate, 5th and 6th decade is commonly affected, patients with GCS less than 6 are having higher mortality.
