Teaching File - Haemorrhagic Cerebral Infarct

There is a classical left middle cerebral artery territorial infarct with secondary haemorrhagic changes and intraventricular extension. This is typically seen after 2-3 days of the ischaemic event and is a potentially catastrophic event, to be watched for, especially in hypertensive patients.
