[Minimally invasive surgery of patients with hypertensive intracerebral bleedings].

An analysis of results of surgical treatment of 79 patients aged from 41 to 72 years with hypertensive intracerebral hematomas of supratentorial localization has shown that results of surgical treatment depended on the severity of the patients' state, the degree of impairment of consciousness, volume and localization of hematoma, ventricular hemorrhage and in less degree on the terms of operation and the degree of displacement of the median structures of the brain. The endoscopic techniques proved to be preferential in hematomas of the lateral and mixed localizations with the volume not more than 60 cm3. The developed method using a cannula allowed abandon open operations in most patients with the lateral and mixed hematomas. The postoperative lethality became less by 9.9%.
