[Results of surgery for hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage].

The authors subdued 82 patients to an analysis, the aim of which was to determine the most optimum indication criterias for operations due to hypertonic brain hemorrhage. The survival rate, its qualities and other parameters in the group under observation did not significantly differ from characteristics of groups of patients given by literature. Therefore, they recommend the following factors to be taken into consideration of surgical indication: age, general status of the patient, localization of the hematoma, associated internal diseases. (Tab. 3, Fig. 5, Ref. 16.)

Two dimensional echoencephalography during the neurosurgical operations.

The authors describe the use of two dimensional ultrasonic image in time of neurosurgical operations. After craniotomy it is possible by means of B-scan to localise the brain pathology, to measure its depth from the brain surface as well as to plan the surgical strategy. The safety of this examination, its simplicity and immediate working results are stressed. This examination is recommended for all operations in intracranial space, because it enables the best possible orientation of the surgeon.

Three observations of familial incidence of the central nervous system neoplasms.

The authors report of 3 observations of the familiar incidence of the central nervous system neoplasms. In the first case it was brain astrocytoma in 2 brothers, in the second case is was man with the meningioma of falx cerebri and his sister with capillary hemangioma of the cerebellum, in the third case it was a woman with astrocytoma of the left temporal lobe and her brother with medulloblastoma. The authors are of the opinion that it was only coincidence in all three cases.

Contribution to the etiology of spina bifida cystica.

Authors report of bone anomalies found out by plain X-ray examination in 61 mothers and 40 fathers of children with spina bifida cystica. There was ascertained hyper-pneumatisation of skull bones 18 times, platybasia or basilar impression 15-times, spina bifida occulta 11-times and deformation of lumbosacral vertebrae 8-times. Only in 49 parents of handicapped children the roentgenological picture of their skeleton was physiological. In comparison with the control group of 100 persons chosen by random access the incidence of skeleton anomalies of parents of children with congenital defects of the neural tube was significantly higher.
