There is a massive parenchymal hemorrhage centered in the left basal ganglia and temporal lobe showing a mass effect characterized by lateral ventricles compression, midline shift, left subfalcine and transtentorial brain herniation, as well as diffuse effacement of cerebral sulci. There is also subarachnoid hemorrhage with blood within the ventricles and along the tentorium cerebellum.
