[A cured case of hypertensive intracerebellar hematoma (author's transl)]. 1976

I Takada, and T Ito, and Y Miyazaki

A case of hypertensive intracerebellar hematoma surgically treated and cured was reported. The 41-year-old male had two cerebrovascular attacks with headache and vomiting followed by left hemiparesis. Drowsiness and dysarthria appeared the next day. The patient was admitted to a hospital, where right facial palsy, loss of right gag reflex and paralytic hemiplegia on the left side were noted. On the 7th day, the patient's consciousness became clear byt the other neurological evidences did not change. On the 14th day, bradycardia and central hyperventilation appeared and he became drowsy again. The patient was transferred to the authors' clinic. When the patient was admitted, he showed typical cerebellar signs such as nystagmus, ataxia, and slurring speech with pyramidal sign on left side and cranial nerves paralysis on right side, and also showed the changes of vital signs as a medullary syndrome in the late stage of the course. The vertebral angiogram revealed a space taking process in the right cerebellar hemisphere. The old blood (30g) was removed by suboccipital craniectomy. The hematoma cavity had a communication with the IVth ventricle through a small perforation in the medial wall of the hematoma. Spontaneour intracerebellar hematoma including of hypertensive origin is not rare in the reports of autopsy but surgically treated case has only rarely been reported. The main reason of few survivals should be in its fulminate course.
