[Features of the clinical manifestation of contusion of the cerebral hemisphere in patients with hypertension].

Analysis of 401 cases with contusion of the cerebral hemispheres showed that in patients with craniocerebral trauma and essential hypertension the incidence of traumatic intracranial hematoma was 1.3-1.4 times higher and the incidence of acute cerebral circulatory disorders (mainly cerebral infarctions) was 4-5 times higher. Isolated contusion of the cerebral hemispheres in patients with essential hypertension was characterized by less manifested symptoms of internal hypertension and the dislocation syndrome. The combination of craniocerebral injury and essential hypertension has a marked effect on the clinical manifestations of both the craniocerebral trauma and essential hypertension.
