[Characteristics of the process of brain stem compression in the acute period of cranio-cerebral injury]. 1976

Iu V Isakov

Proceeding from an analysis of 520 cases of surgery for acute and subacute intracranial haematomas, the author concludes that the process of brain compression is characterized by the tempo, degree and duration that are interrelated. A slow tempo of compression may bring about a significant degree and duration of the compression, with the compression-dislocation syndrome being rather indistinct, which is not observed in cases of a fast tempo. The degree of compression is determined not only by the size of the haematoma, but also by the severity of the contusion and oedema of the brain, by the size of the reserve intracranial spaces, etc. The duration of an acutely developing significant brain compression is a decisive factor in the success of a surgical management of a haematoma. The severity of brain contusion affects various aspects of the compression process--its tempo, degree, and --indirectly--duration.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.
