RESUMEN
El tratamiento de elección para la evacuación de hematoma subdural crónico es la evacuación mediante orificio de trépano. Las complicaciones más frecuentes son recurrencia, neumoencefalo, convulsiones, hemorragia intracraneal y en otros sitios. La hemorragia del tronco cerebral secundaria a la cirugía es extremadamente rara. Aquí presentamos un paciente masculino de 72 años, que ingresa con GSC 9/15, hemiparesia izquierda 2/5. Con HSD crónico bilateral con desplazamiento de línea media de 1.5 cm. hacia izq. Al cual se realiza evacuación de HSD derecho. Y en el POP se detecta GSC 12/15, lado izquierdo fuerza 5/5, con hemiparesia derecha a predominio braquial. TC control POP: adecuada evacuación de HSD y lesión hiperdensa protuberancial. Es externado al 6to día POP con GSC 14/15 sin déficit motor. Este reporte, además de abordar la bibliografía actual y fisiopatología; agrega otro caso para reafirmar la posibilidad de pronóstico favorable en ésta patología
ABSTRACT The treatment of choice for the evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma is evacuation through a trepan orifice. The most frequent complications are recurrence, re-accumulation of the hematoma, pneumoencephalus, seizures, intracranial hemorrhage and elsewhere. Brainstem hemorrhage secondary to surgery is extremely rare. Here we present a 72-year-old male patient, admitted with GSC 9/15, left hemiparesis 2/5. Without obeying orders. With bilateral chronic HSD with midline displacement of 1.5 cm. to left; to which evacuation of right HSD is performed. And in the POP GSC 12/15 is detected, left side force 5/5, with right hemiparesis to brachial predominance. POP control CT: adequate evacuation of HSD and hyperdense pontine lesion. It is extership to the 6th day POP with GSC 14/15 without motor deficit. This report, besides addressing the current bibliography and physiopathology; adds another case to reaffirm the possibility of favorable prognosis in this pathology

From 1996-2002 we treated 5 consecutive cases of pial fistula. There were 3 patients with a single hole-single channel pial fistula and two patients had a complex pial fistula. Three patients presented with intracerebral hematoma and had a focal neurological deficit. One patient presented with history of seizures and 1 patient had headache. The results of the treatment were analyzed both clinically and angiographically. The follow-up period ranged from 6 months to 6 years. All fistulas were treated with concentrated glue. The glue cast included the distal part of the feeding artery, A-V connection and the proximal part of the vein. Post-embolisation angiography showed complete occlusion of two single-hole fistulas and one complex pial A-V fistula and near total occlusion of one single-hole and one complex pial A-V fistula. Four patients had excellent clinical outcome. One patient with single-hole fistula had a hemorrhagic venous infarct resulting in transient hemiparesis.
