[Clinical picture of multiple intracranial hematomas in the acute period of severe cranio-cerebral trauma].

Abstract

According to the authors, the clinical course of multiple intracranial haematomas is characterized by a prompt formation of the syndrome of acute brain dislocation with the development of severe pyramidal deficit and involvement of the oculomotor nerve on the side of the larger intracranial haematoma. To detect the multiple haematomas it is recommended to employ, both pre- and post-operatively, a careful echoencephalographic and angiographic control in the patients with a severe brain trauma.
