[Craniocerebral trauma and glioma].

There are only a few well documented cases in the literature which allow for the assumption of traumatic origin of some intracranial tumors. Four cases are presented in whom the authors have accepted the traumatic origin of gliomas because of it's evidence, but--from their scientific understanding of tumor development--without being convinced of such a correlation. It is stressed that scientific points of view and argumentation in social insurance affairs may differ and that they should be carefully distinguished.

[MR tomography following craniocerebral trauma: comparison with computed tomography, electroencephalography and neurologic status].

56 patients with head and brain trauma and in coma were studied prospectively by means of MRT, CT, EEG and neurological examination. All patients had initial CT and EEG admission. MRT showed that in our patients morphological return to normal was the exception. Patients with head and brain injuries should be examined by MRT during the course of their illness. The use of special sequences, such as gradient-echo sequences for the diagnosis of haemorrhagic contusions, is indicated. CT should be retained for evaluating bone injury and cerebral damage during the acute stage.
