Background and Purpose-There is only limited knowledge on the time course of perihemorrhagic edema (PHE) after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to investigate the chronological PHE course and its relation to in-hospital mortality in a large retrospective ICH cohort.Methods-Patients with supratentorial ICH treated at our institution between 2006 and 2009, who had received at least 3 CT scans in the course of conservative treatment, were included in the present analysis. PHE at Days 1, 2, 3, 4 to 6, 7 to 11, 12 to 16, 17 to 21, and >22 was assessed using a threshold based semiautomatic volumetric algorithm. A chart review was performed to achieve data on duration of stay, ventilation, treatment with external ventricular drains, and in-hospital mortality.Results-Two hundred nineteen patients aged 69.9 +/- 10.5 years with deep (n = 103) or lobar (n = 116) ICH were included in the study. Mean ICH volume was 35.7 +/- 31.5 mL. Mean absolute PHE volume significantly increased from initially 32.6 +/- 29.9 mL to 63.7 +/- 46.7 mL at Days 7 to 11. No significant changes were observed at later time points. ICH volume was strongly correlated with absolute PHE volume (rho=0.8, P
