[Prognostic criteria on the cranial computed tomogram of an ischemic cerebral infarct].
Two hundred and eighty-three cranial computer tomograms in 214 patients with supratentorial ischaemic infarcts were analysed with reference to the prognosis. Patients with large infarcts often have a poor prognosis. Contrast accumulation indicates a poor prognosis only in the first week. Enhancement in the second and third week was more common and more intense. Diapedesis from necrotic capillaries is thought to be responsible for early enhancement and increased pinocytosis in regenerated endothelium for late enhancement.
