[Our experience with using nimodipine in the treatment of ischemic complications after subarachnoid hemorrhage].

On the basis of 50 patients treated for subarachnoid haemorrhage the authors report own experiences with the use of Nimotop for control of vasospasm caused by cerebral ischemia. All these patients were in grades III and IV of the Hunt-Hess scale. The studied patients with vasospasm and cerebral ischaemia were compared with patients similarly in grades III IV of this scale who were not given Nimotop. The analysis showed that patients treated with Nimotop were operated on earlier and had less evident neurological defect on discharge from the hospital.

[Latest results of surgical treatment of vertebrobasilar aneurysms].

The author presents late results of surgery of 65 vertebrobasilar aneurysms (out of 100 patients treated operatively). The data were obtained from 50 patients (76.9% of all investigated). In spite of large number of independent patients (41), only 9 returned to previous work, and 6 changed their occupation, but 32 received disability pensions.

[Diagnosis and surgical treatment of posterior cerebral artery aneurysm. Report of five cases].

Five cases of aneurysm of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) are reported. All patients presented with SAH. Four cases were operated from the subtemporal approach, and one from occipital interhemispheric route. Three aneurysms were treated by clipping, and two by closing of the PCA (trapping and proximal clipping). Four patients had either excellent or good outcome. One patient died (meningitis). The operative tactics are discussed in relation to the anatomy of PCA.
