Controlled subtotal evacuation of intracerebral haematomas by stereotactic technique

Surg Neurol. 1978 Feb;9(2):99-101.

Abstract

A new instrument for stereotactic evacuation of intracerebral haematomas is presented, as well as preliminary clinical experiences. A combined screw-and-suction technique makes possible the evacuation of even densely coagulated clots. The principle for a limited removal of a hemorrhagic mass in the brain is discussed.
