Computerized tomography in intracranial hemorrhage.

L A Weisberg

    Archives of Neurology
    |July 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Computerized tomography (CT) revealed that thalamic-ganglionic hemorrhage significantly increases mortality with ventricular extension. Lobar hematomas showed lower mortality, unaffected by ventricular spread.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Radiology
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a critical condition with varying prognoses.
    • Accurate diagnosis and characterization of ICH are vital for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the diagnostic utility of computerized tomography (CT) in patients with intracranial hemorrhage.
    • To correlate CT findings with patient outcomes, specifically mortality rates.
    • To investigate the association between specific hematoma locations, ventricular extension, and aneurysm detection.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 300 patients with intracranial hemorrhage.
    • Utilized computerized tomography (CT) for initial diagnosis and characterization.
    • Correlated CT findings with angiography in select cases and assessed outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Thalamic-ganglionic hematoma (232 patients) had a mortality of 25%, rising to 70% with ventricular extension.
    • Lobar hematoma (45 patients) had a 20% mortality, unaffected by ventricular extension.
    • CT identified potential aneurysms in 12 patients with cisternal blood, with location prediction in six; enhancement suggested neoplasm, angioma, or aneurysm in 15/29 ICH cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Ventricular extension dramatically worsens prognosis for thalamic-ganglionic hemorrhages.
    • CT is crucial for identifying ICH subtypes, assessing complications like ventricular spread, and guiding further investigation for vascular lesions.
    • The study highlights the importance of CT in predicting outcomes and identifying underlying causes of intracranial hemorrhage.
