Is a bloodclot on the brain likely to be cancerous?

Not likely unless there was a growth in the brain before any bleeding occurred.

Intracranial bleeding has many etiologies. Metastatic cancers can present with intracerebral bleeding secondary to cancers of lung, skin(MELANOMA), breast, GI tract, and kidney.
