Cerebral hematomas.
One hundred patients with primary cerebral hemorrhage were studied to evaluate previously established guidelines for surgical treatment. Sixty two patients were not operated upon and 38 were. The mortality in the 100 cases was 51%. It appears that the mortality can be lowered if a careful selection of surgical cases is made.
