The authors report the case of a 64-year-old man who presented normal pressure hydrocephalus in the course of hypertensive and arteriosclerotic vasculopathy confirmed by postmortem examination. A blood clot was found on the central area of the left cerebellar hemisphere. The clinical features and the pathogenesis of normal pressure hydrocephalus and cerebellar hemorrhage are reviewed and discussed.
