[Diagnosis and surgical treatment of endocranial compressive hemorrhage]
Insights
This study analyzed 122 patients with compressive intracranial hemorrhages, finding a 21.3% mortality rate. Early diagnosis via echo-encephalography and CAT scans is crucial for managing these critical brain injuries.

Abstract:
Authors present results of diagnosis at surgical treatment of 122 patients with compressive intracranial haemorrhages, observed and treated in the course of last five years. All patients have been admitted and treated at the Department for intensive care of patients, and have been under care of one neurosurgeon and anestetists duty and radiologists. 18 patients had chronical subdural haematoma, and 104-patients had acute compressive intracranial haemorrhages: epidural, subdural and intracerebral, one more haemorrhages in the same patient, hygromas, and sclopetar wounds with fast evolution. Out of 104 patients, 25 died (mortality rate 24%), and 26 patients died out of 122 patients (mortality rate being 21,3%). Authors enphesize the value of eho-encefalography and CAT of brain in the manengement of compressive inte cranial haemorrhages in the state of peace and in the state of war.
