Indications for surgical treatment of @entity548 and XXXX .

@entity1 @entity1276 @entity548 @entity1188 @entity76 @entity1662
This report summarizes the outcome of 56 @entity1 with @entity76 of vascular origin, 40 @entity1 with @entity1188 , and 16 with @entity548 . All @entity1 had computerized tomography: occlusive @entity1276 was diagnosed in 75% of @entity1 with @entity548 and in 23% with @entity1188 . Nine out of 10 @entity1 survived after early surgical evacuation of the haematoma and 4 of them recovered completely. Two @entity1 underwent only external ventricular drainage (EVD), one died after 2 days, and the other recovered with a moderate deficit. Three of 4 medically treated @entity1 died within one week; all had developed occlusive @entity1276 . The fourth medically treated @entity1 recovered completely; consciousness had never deteriorated nor had occlusive @entity1276 developed. Among 40 @entity1 with @entity1188 , 13 developed progressive @entity1662 ; 7 of them underwent decompressive craniectomy of the posterior fossa and survived. One @entity1 had only external ventricular drainage and died. Four out of the 5 medically treated @entity1 died during the acute phase. From these observations and several reports in the literature, it is concluded that both @entity548 and @entity1188 should be operated on as soon as progressive @entity1662 develops. This occurs more frequently in @entity1 with @entity548 than with @entity1188 . Individual decision-making in each case necessitates intensive neurosurgical observation.
