In this study, clinical data of 31 patients in childhood with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) were retrospectively analyzed. According to various imaging examinations (CT, MRI, CTA, MRA and DSA), 22 cases (70.97%) had definite causes, including 9 cases (29.03%) with intracranial arteriovenous malformation, 6 cases (19.35% ) with cavernous hemangioma, 3 cases (9.68% ) with hematopathy, 2 cases (6.45%) with tumor apoplexy, one case (3.23%) with intracranial aneurysm and one case (3.23% ) with moyamoya disease; 9 cases (29.03% ) had unclear causes. All cases were timely diagnosed and treated. Among all the patients, 23 cases (74.19%) were cured with good prognosis, 6 cases (19.35% ) improved, and the other 2 cases (6.45% ) died. Therefore, primary diseases should be timely treated as hematoma was removed.doi：10.3969/j.issn.1672-6731.2014.01.011
