title: [Clinical aspects and prognosis in cerebellar concussion syndromes].
abstract: In a group of 100 cases of head trauma 4 patients (4%) were observed with traumatic cerebellar syndromes without coexistence of other traumatic focal lesions in the central nervous system. All these cases were due to cerebellar contusion. In 2 patients the diagnosis was confirmed by computerized tomography. The clinical observations indicate that these syndromes are not associated with raised intracranial pressure, but have a rich symptomatology, frequently exceeding the picture of selective cerebellar damage. The observations made as yet seem to suggest that computerized tomography is the only auxiliary investigation making possible the diagnosis of selective cerebellar contusion. In uncomplicated cerebellar contusion the prognosis is good.
