Abstract
Cases (6) of brain-stem hematoma in patients are described. The clinical presentation in these cases was extremely variable. Operative evacuation of the hematoma resulted in immediate improvement in all cases and a full or nearly full recovery in 5. Untreated brain-stem hematoma is probably always fatal, whereas surgical evacuation is effective and safe. The diagnosis of brain-stem hematoma should be considered in any case of brain-stem lesion.This publication has 21 references indexed in Scilit:
