Core Tip

Core tip: Acute stroke (AS)-induced cardiac injury is of utmost clinical importance. The data of cerebrocardiac syndrome (CCS) after intracerebral hemorrhage are few. We report a case of ischemic electrocardiogram changes in acute cerebral hemorrhage and systematically review the mechanisms and characteristics of CCS in the setting of AS and raise awareness of CCS among physicians.
