Abstract
Aim of the work
This thesis has been performed in both neurosurgery and neurology departments at Minia University Hospital during the period of July 1996 to July 1998, is:
1- Estimation of the percentage of chronic subdural haematoma cases presented as a stroke to the total investigated stroke cases in Minia governorate locality.
2- Emphasis the importance of C.T. scan in investigating any stroke cases before any treatment to any stroke patients to declare the cases of chronic subdural haematoma between them.
3- Studying the significant correlation between the factors affecting the final outcome of chronic subdural haematoma.
Conclusion
1- The percentage of stroke presentation of chronic subdural haematoma in EL-Minia governorate was 3.1% of 803 cases of stroke. The percentage still questionable as there is no previous studies estimate the stroke presentation of chronic subdural haematoma.
2- Chronic subdural haematoma with stroke presentation only diagnosed by radiological investigations (CT and MRI) which make this type of investigation mandatory for any case of stroke before implementation of any modality of treatment.
3- All cases of cerebro-vascular stroke should be investigated by CT brain before any specific treatment started (i.e. heparin in cases of thromboembolic cerebrovascular stroke).
4- According the statistical correlation between the onset intervention interval and final outcome, patients with chronic subdural haematoma should be operated upon as fast as possible unless there is any absolute contraindication for surgery e.g. severe thrombocytopenia or hypoprothrombinaemia.
