Abstract:
The authors analyzed 11 patients of hypertensive intracerebral hematoma who had undergone the delayed CT guided stereotaxic evacuation. this delayed stereotaxic evacuation seemed to be highly effective in improving the motor weakness rather than mental state. Such effect was appeared immediately after the procedures in most of the patients, even in very small amount of hematoma. In addition, we could shorten the total hospital periods. The most effective time of this delayed stereotaxic evacuation was seemed to be in around 2 weeks after the hemorrhage.
