Introduction: The Bothrops sp. venom has proteolytic, hemorrhagic, and coagulant activity. Clinical manifestations range from local ecchymosis to severe hemorrhage in distant organs. However, stroke is rarely reported. Case Report: A 52-year-old man who presented with an intracranial bleeding as the sole manifestation of Bothrops sp. snakebite. Conclusions: Although uncommon, Bothrops snakebite may present as isolated intracranial bleeding. This case illustrates the importance of the correct identification of the snake as poisonous and the institution of the adequate medical care in a short period of time
