title: [Traumatic and spontaneous cerebral hematoma].
abstract: The authors analyzed 231 patients--14% of all intracranial haematomas treated in the Department of Neurosurgery in Poznań between 1962 and 1990. The patients were divided into 3 following subgroups: I--cases of spontaneous haematomas (identified and unidentified)--30%, II--haematomas of unknown aetiology, but after mild head trauma--27%, III--traumatic haematomas--43%. Increased risk of mortality was observed in cases with intracerebral posttraumatic haematomas. These patients demonstrated diffuse cerebral oedema and multifocal contusions. In the subgroup of patients with spontaneous cerebral haematomas vascular malformation was present during operation or/and in histopathological study--65%.
