Abstract
To present a case of acute haemorrhagic stroke during 3rd trimester of pregnancy and to describe management and successful delivery of healthy baby. Haemorrhagic stroke is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality. Prognosis can be improved only by urgent diagnosis and care. We report a case of pregnant woman at 37th week of pregnancy with acute haemorrhagic stroke of unknown etiology with clinical appearance of thunderclap headaches and overall disorientation. We describe diagnostic approach and a successful management followed by further differential diagnosis and treatment. The foetus was delivered by acute caesarean section at 37th week of pregnancy. Occurrence of haemorrhagic stroke in pregnancy is rare. There are no specific guidelines that recommend the time and mode of delivery; therefore, each case is assessed individually.
