[Post-traumatic intracerebral hematomas. Apropos of a series of 38 cases].
Our study is based on the analysis of traumatic I.C.H. 38 cases observed since we have had a C.T. Scan at our disposal (1975). Those cases (recorded in the departments of Paillas, Vigouroux, Sedan, Combalbert) represent 2,3% of the brain traumas, 6,5% of the traumatic intra-parenchymatous lesions and 9,5% of the traumatic intra-cranial hematomas. Most of the cases reported deal with male patients, with on average age of 46, who are often victims of traffic accidents. In half the cases of skull fractures, the hematoma is located in the opposite side of the fracture. In almost all cases, initial loss of consciousness is observed, followed by consciousness alterations, with few free intervals and with neurological focal signs depending on the site of the lesion. The C.T. Scan data of the those traumatic hematoma have been studied.
