On the basis of a series of 255 severe head injuries, the authors present a clinical, radiological and anatomical study of central transtentorial impaction. Anatomical examination reveals the frequency of central impaction which affects from above downwards and in succession all of the axial structures in their median part. Clinically, these lesions fall into three categories in terms of signs: homogeneous and corresponding to the anatomical lesions. Scanner findings confirm the anatomoclinical data and provide important information in the assessment of prognosis.

[Personal experience of Cotrel's method in the surgical treatment of scoliosis and kyphosis (author's transl)].

This current report of our experience of Cotrel's method falls within the context of continuing the developments in our treatment of scoliosis. Our follow-up for Harrington's operation is 13 years, 281 patients having undergone surgery. On other words, having known the beginnings of this surgery, we are in a position to measure the progress represented by Berckoise's technique (7, 6, 8).
