Özet

The enlargement of hematoma in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage is an important cause of neurological deterioration. The determination of the factors affecting the enlargement of hematoma will provide following up of the patients with high risk more closely. In this study, we investigated the clinical, laboratory, and radiological characteristics of hematoma enlargement in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. This study was planned prospectively between September 1999 and June 2001. The patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage were grouped according to the presence or absence of enlargement in hemorrhage. Volume of hemorrhage was calculated by using the formula of AXBXC/2. The volume in the first CT was determined as (V1) and in control CT as (V2). If the ratio between two of them V2/V1 was greater than 1.5 or if the difference between two volumes was greater than 10 cm3 it was accepted as hemorrhage enlargement. Of 21 patients, hemorrhage enlargement was detected in five patients. In the group of patients with hemorrhage enlargement, high level of urea, creatinine, blood glucose, systolic blood pressure, low level of fibrinogen, presence of defect in consciousness, and leucocytosis were found different statistically.
