Severe brainstem hemorrhage is the most intractable type of intracerebral hemorrhage. It is still a challenge for neurosurgeons. The surgical indications for brainstem hemorrhage are still controversial clinically, and there is no uniform standard. The death rate and disability rate of patients are very high, and the prognosis is very poor. A patient with severe brainstem hemorrhage was successfully treated by utilizing the trans-cerebellomedullary fissure approach with lateral ventricular drainage in combination with clinical experience at the hospital where the author worked. The case is being reported for the first time to provide a reference for improving the treatment of brainstem hemorrhage.
