[Cerebellar ataxia and acute cerebellar insult].

Ataxia, loss of muscle coordination during complex movement, is the most important sign of cerebellar lesion. Acute cerebellar attack of ischaemic and/or haemorrhagic nature is a focal disorder of cerebellar function which occurs rarely considering the prominent collateral net of blood vessels conveying blood to the cerebellum and the brain stem. We examined 12 patients with acute cerebellar attack (9 with ischaemic and 3 with haemorrhagic attack) of 300 patients with symptoms and signs of acute cerebrovascular attacks. We used all available diagnostic methods (EEG, neuro-ophthalmological examination, computed tomography as well as brain scintigraphy and angiography) in the management of these patients.

[Vascular headache and cerebral edema].

Headache is one of the commonest symptoms in neurology. It can be present among many other somatic illnesses. There are many aetiological factors. Pathogenetic mechanisms are unknown. There is a significant number of patients with headache, especially with vascular headache, (about 15%), and vascular headache associated with cerebrovascular ischaemic stroke. Therefore the new investigations of neurobiochemical and neurophysiological problems are necessary. A group of patients involved in our study with diagnosis of vascular headache was tested. The result of the study (especially neuroradiological results) show that many patients, prevalently young women, had cerebral oedema during the attack of vascular headache.
