Abstract

Fifty cases of subarachnoid haemorrhage from aneurysms are reported. Computer tomography gave direct evidence of aneurysm in 13 cases and indirect signs in 25 cases. In the remaining 12 cases the aneurysm could not be located. Apart from this we were able to demonstrate 16 intraventricular haemorrhages, 16 intracerebral haemorrhages, six cases of oedema of the brain, nine subarachnoid haemorrhages and, finally on 31 occasions enlargement of the ventricles. The role of the CT scan has been investigated in terms of its value in the planning and execution of surgical treatment.
