A case of self-inflicted bite injuries of the fingers with an episode of small intracerebral haemorrhages is presented. There were many injuries on the right fingers. The tip of the right forefinger was bitten off, and some small pieces of the finger had been aspirated and swallowed. This unusual case seemed to be an emotional response to pain from cerebral episode.
