Traumatic Intracerebral Hematoma

In the period from 01.01.2000 until 31.12.2002 34 patients with spontaneous intracerebral hematoma (ICH) and with deeply disturbed state of consciousness were operated in the Department of neurosurgery of the Urgent Center, Clinical Center of Serbia. In all operated patients the indication for surgery was given on the basis of CT scan of the brain, state of consciousness, defined Glasgow coma score (GCS) and neurological status, but due to existing or threatening incarceration not even one patient was submitted to angiography of the blood vessels at the cerebral base, thus preoperatively we did not know the cause of the hemorrhage. Of 34 operated patients 22 or 64.7% died, and 12 or 35.3% survived. 14 patients were in the deepest phase of coma, where the preoperative GCS is from 3 to 5 points, and in the postoperative course only one survived, aged 25. The other survivors had somewhat less disturbed state of consciousness, they also were younger, CT scan of the brain was without blood in the chamber system. In the same period, in the Department of Neurosurgery of the Urgent Center, Clinical Center of Serbia 43 patients with traumatic intracerebral hematoma (TIH) were operated; 9 patients survived, 34 died. Only 4 patients had acute TIH. All of them were in the terminal stage of incarceration, and despite being immediately submitted to surgery all of them died. The remaining 39 patients had, the so called delayed TIH where the secondary CT scan of the brain showed development of the traumatic intracerebral haematoma that was not verified on the incipient scanner. Indication for a repeated CT scan was given in 19 patients due to focal or general neurological deterioration. However in 20 patients subsequent neurological disturbances were not registered. Those that survived were younger patients, and they were not in the deepest stage of coma, most often they had a temporal localization of hematoma.

We present the clinical course of a 56-year-old female patient with a primary tracheal leiomyosarcoma. The diagnostic approach and pathological classification of this seldom described tumour remains extremely difficult. We discuss the symptoms as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, including multimodal chemotherapy with organ-preserving surgery leading to complete remission.

Early Dementia

In the first part of his article, the author examines the current state of the issue of secondary dementia and proves that a group of psychoses, known under the name secondary dementia, should be left in the classification of mental illnesses. The second part is devoted to the analysis of Krpelin's scholarship on dementia praecox, and the author fundamentally disagrees with many of the provisions of the latter. In the third part, the ethiology, clinical course and recognition of premature dementia are analyzed.

Csf Examination

The objective of this study was to establish the etiology of epilepsy in 210 chronic epileptics (110 female, 100 male), aged 14-82 years (34.2±13.3). Patients less than 10 years-old and alcoholism were excluded. All underwent neurological examination, routine blood tests, EEG and CT-scan. Twenty patients (10.5%) were submitted to spinal tap for CSF examination. Neurological examination was abnormal in 26 (12.4%), the EEG in 68 (45.5%), and CT-scan in 93 (44.3%). According to the International Classification of Epileptic Seizures (1981), 101 (48.1%) have generalized seizures, 66 (31.4%) partial seizures secondarily generalized, 25 (11.8%) simple partial and complex partial seizures, and 14 (6.6%) generalized and partial seizures. Four patients (2.0%) could not be classified. In 125 (59.5%) patients the etiology was unknown. Neurocysticercosis accounted for 57 (27.1%) of cases, followed by cerebrovascular disease 8 (3.8%), perinatal damage 5 (2.4%), familial epilepsy 4 (1.9%), head injury 4 (1.9%), infective 1 (0.5%), and miscelanea 6 (2.8%).
