A Clinical Evaluation of 480 Cases of Cerebrovascular Disorders Confirmed by CT Brain Scan

ABSTRACT

We have experienced 480 cases of Cerebrovascular Disorder confirmed by C. T. Brain scan, who admitted to the Kyung hee Medical Center from January 1979 to December 1980. The authors have analyzed the clinical aspects of Cerebrovascular Disorder. The following results are obtained. 1) Intracranial hemorrhage group is more commoner than occlusive group. The sixth decade is most frequently involved. Male is more affected. 2) Headache is most frequent initial symptom and next sequence is paresis. 3) The prognosis is correlated with the initial consciousness level, initial CSF pressure and hematoma volume. 4) In the intracranial hemorrhage group, the prognosis is somewhat better in the operative cases than in the non-operative cases.
