This is a serious and dangerous disease that requires quick and qualified medical intervention.

Diagnosis of hemorrhagic internal pachymeningitis includes neuroimaging, liquor studies, blood tests for infections and autoimmune disorders.

Treatment of hemorrhagic internal pachymeningitis requires intensive therapy, which includes the use of antibiotics, antiviral drugs, glucocorticosteroids, as well as symptomatic therapy to relieve pain and other symptoms. In severe cases, surgery may be required to remove hemorrhages.
