Q: Is CAA the only cause of bleeding stroke?

A: No.

There are other diseases that can cause blood vessels in the brain to break open, such as longstanding high blood pressure or weak areas (aneurysms) in blood vessel walls. CAA is responsible for approximately 30-40% of bleeding strokes in the elderly.
