Relative : it depends on the location and the size of the hemorrhage. I wish I had a more specific answer but it's very dependent on those facts as well as the underlying health of the patient.

Unfortunately,: Generically, the mortality rate, within one year, from an intracerebral hemorrhage is 60%, year in and year out. When the blood enters the ventricle, there appears to be even a grimmer outcome. If survival does ensue, there is a risk of communicating hydrocephalus. Although poor prognosis here, would have family conference with your doctors and understand what they think.
