[Transcranial doppler ultrasonography monitoring in patients with intracerebral hematoma due to aneurysm rupture].
The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of intracerebral haematoma due to aneurysmal rupture on vasospasm evaluated by transcranial Doppler ultrasound and outcome according to Glasgow Outcome Scale. 368 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm were admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery, Medical Academy in Wrocław, between January 1, 1995 and June 30, 1998. Patients were divided into two groups. In group I there were 74 patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage and intracerebral haematoma. In group II 294 patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage. Despite intensive monitoring and treatment the outcome of patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage and intracerebral haematoma is worse than in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage only.
