[Complications of intracranial neoplastic pathology].
Post-surgical complications in the treatment of intracranial tumors, independently of their location, are summarized in 5 essential points: a) edema; b) hemorrhages; c) ischemias; d) infections; e) alterations of the liquoral dynamics. According to our experience, it is possible to minimize these complications by using convenient intraoperative surgical procedures. On this subject, in addition to the traditional microsurgical techniques, the use of the high technologies (Cusa, laser) is very advantageous. In conclusion the important role of neuroanaesthesia and of the post-operative intensive care is underlined.
