| ABSTRACT |

The authors operated 127 cases of the spontaneous intracerebral hematoma patients who were admitted via the emergency room during the recent two years. The location, timing of operation, method of approach, mortality etc. were analyzed. The results are as follows : 1) putaminal hemorrhage was 47.3%, thalamic hemorrhage was 23.6%, subcortical hemorrhage was 18.9%, cerebellar hemorrhage was 3.9%, pontine hemorrhage was 1.6%, and IVH only was 4.7%. 2) 77.2% was operated during the first 48 hours from the onset.
3) Almost all of the procedures were transcortical and trans-sylvian approach. 4) The mortality rate was 52.0%. 5) Microsurgical technique and external ventricular drainage(or ventriculoperitoneal shunt) played an important role for the good surgical outcome. |
