Unfortunately, stroke is all too common. Nearly 1 million new strokes are diagnosed in the US each year. And this means that complications of stroke--even if rare--may also be common. One such complication is hemorrhagic transformation. This week, Dr. Ava Liberman reviews a clinical case of hemorrhage following ischemic stroke. Produced by James E. Siegler. Music by Ghost, Kevin McLeod, and Scott Holmes. Voiceover by David Manly.
