Stereotactic Evacuation and Local Fibrinolysis of Spontaneous Intracerebral Hematomas

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Neurosurgery ((NEURO,volume 21))

Abstract

Since introduction of computerized tomography (CT) by Hounsfield in 1974 [4] soft tissue differentiation in the imaging of brain lesions has become self-evident; the differential diagnosis of the origin of stroke — infarction versus hemorrhage or versus hemorrhagic infarction — can be made immediately after the onset of the uniform symptomatology indicating a clinical entity. However, having obtained the concrete diagnosis of spontaneous intracerebral hematoma (ICH) the discussion as to what kind of treatment would be the best — conservative or operative — still remains controversial [3,12].
