Methods: From July 1994 to July 1999 tentorium cerebelli hiatus incision was done based on intracranial hematoma evacuation and bone flap craniectomy decompression in 70 cases of severe and most severe brain injuries complicated by tentorial herniation. Results: Of the 70 cases, GCS 3-5 was in 23 and GCS 6-8 in 47; satisfactory recovery in 39 cases ( 55.7 %), moderate disability in 12 ( 17.1 %), severe deficit in 6 ( 8.6 %), vegetative survival in 4 ( 5.7 %) and 8 ( 11.4 %) died. Conclusions: Tentoriun cerebelli incision is helpful in alleviating secondary brain stem injury from tentorial herniation and in reducing the disability and death rate of the patients.展开更多

After treatment, 46 patients ((79.30)%) recovered well, 6 ((10.30)%) suffered from mild disability, 1 ((1.72)%) suffered from severe disability, 1 ((1.72)%) was in vegetative state, and 4 ((6.90)%) died.Conclusions: Evacuating hematomas and incising tentorium can effectively treat the child patients with severe craniocerebral trauma combined with transtentorial hernia, which can decrease the disability and mortality rates greatly, preserve the skull, exempt reoperation for cranioplasty and relieve the psychologic and physiologic burden of the child patients.展开更多
