Abstract

BACKGROUND: Intraventricular hemorrhage, which has a poor prognosis, is an extremely rare presenting symptom of central nervous system vasculitis. Sneddon syndrome, which is a systemic vasculitic disease, generally presents with ischemic stroke and livedo reticularis. Intraventricular hemorrhage is extremely rare in Sneddon syndrome and has not been reported as the presenting complaint.
