Abstract

This article discusses the complexities and treatment challenges of intracranial hemorrhage caused by malaria-induced coagulopathy. Malaria-induced coagulopathy can disrupt the body's normal clotting mechanism, leading to abnormal bleeding, including intracranial hemorrhage. The exact mechanisms underlying the development of intracranial bleeding in these cases are not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of factors such as endothelial dysfunction, platelet dysfunction, and microvascular sequestration of infected erythrocytes. The management of intracranial hemorrhage associated with malaria-induced coagulopathy presents significant challenges, and further research is needed for better understanding and improved treatment strategies.
