[Emergency stereotaxic cerebral punctures].
Based on a series of about a hundred CT-guided stereotactic biopsies, the basic principles of stereotaxic approach of the brain are reviewed. The authors also report their preliminary experience of stereotaxic aspiration in the management of brain abscesses and hypertensive intracerebral hematomas. CT-guided stereotaxic aspiration is useful in the management of brain abscesses and is a viable treatment modality of hypertensive hematomas.
