Clinical investigation of the acute cerebrovascular disease Part 4. Questions to the surgical indication of hypertensive intracerebellar hemorrhage

Abstract

Recently the most of the reported papers concerning to the indication for the hematoma removal of the cerebellar hemorrhage, indicate that hematoma larger than 3 cm in diameter must be removed.
However, in this paper, the authors presented 4 cases who survived and showed relatively satisfactory recovery course with some cerebellar dysfunction in conservative treatment.
Therefore, the authors suggested that the conservative treatment for the cerebellar hemorrhage could be worth to reconsider as a first choice of the treatment.
