ABSTRACT

O hospital de base é o centro de referência do Sistema Médico de Brasília e recebe pacientes admitidos nos Hospitais Regionais do DF, atendendo a uma populaçäo estimada na ocasiäo em torno de 1,5 milhöes de habitantes. Durante o ano de 1985, 159 pacientes foram admitidos com diagnóstico de acidente vascular cerebral hemorrágico. Desse total de pacientes, 60,58% tiveram como causa determinante a rotura de um aneurisma intracraniano. Levando-se em conta as características da organizaçao do Sistema de Saude de Brasília, esse número significa que aproximadamente 5,5 pacientes por 100.000 habitantes por ano säo admitidos com rotura de aneurisma intracraniano em Brasília

ABSTRACT

Seven cases of compromised pituitary fossa at the conventional skull X-ray, who had the final diagnosis of giant aneurysm of the intracavernous portion of the carotid artery (6 cases) and one of the anterior communicating artery, are reported. The main findings were: headache (7/7), complex ophthalmoplegia involving the III, IV and VI cranial nerves (5/7), compromised V cranial nerve (4/7) and eyeball pain (4/7). Other manifestations were: meningeal signs (2/7), unilateral blindness (1/7), hemiparesis (1/7), cacosmia (1/7) and inferior bitemporal quadrantanopsia (1/7). Five patients with intracavernous carotid artery aneurysm showed benefits with progressive occlusion of the internal carotid artery at the cervical level. One died before surgery. The case with anterior communicating artery aneurysm improved after its surgical clipping. Our data, in accord with the literature, support the conclusion that the differential diagnosis of aneurysms in the parasellar region remains a very difficult task. The accurate final diagnosis requires cerebral angiography and the surgical treatment with progressive occlusion at the cervical portion of the internal carotid artery has a relatively low risk with promising results.
