[Acute intracranial hematomas in full term neonates]. 1990

T Lundar, and P Nakstad

Neurokirurgisk avdeling, Rikshospitalet, Oslo.

During at two-year period, six full term neonates were operated in order to evacuate large intracranial haematomas. They were all critically ill at the time of surgical intervention, but responded well to neurosurgery. The clinical results after 9-28 months follow-up are very gratifying. When anisocoria with unilateral fixed, dilated pupil, hemiplegia or failure of spontaneous ventilation occurs, there is limited time for diagnostic CT scans and evacuation of the haematoma.

D002557	Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunts	Tubes inserted to create communication between a cerebral ventricle and the internal jugular vein. Their emplacement permits draining of cerebrospinal fluid for relief of hydrocephalus or other condition leading to fluid accumulation in the ventricles.

D006406	Hematoma	A collection of blood outside the BLOOD VESSELS. Hematoma can be localized in an organ, space, or tissue.	Hematomas
D006429	Hemiplegia	Severe or complete loss of motor function on one side of the body. This condition is usually caused by BRAIN DISEASES that are localized to the cerebral hemisphere opposite to the side of weakness. Less frequently, BRAIN STEM lesions; cervical SPINAL CORD DISEASES; PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASES; and other conditions may manifest as hemiplegia. The term hemiparesis (see PARESIS) refers to mild to moderate weakness involving one side of the body.
