Abstract:
Two cases of postoperative intracerebral haemorrhages remote from the site of the initial craniotomy for saccular aneurysms are reported and the other cases from the literature are reviewed. Lack of a good postoperative recovery and the appearance of neurological signs not related to the site of the operation may suggest this complication, which is associated with high mortality and disability rate. The possible pathogeness of those postoperative haemorrhages is discussed.
