Outcome of 337 intracranial aneurysms patients operated in a public hospital
Many recent series of surgery for intracranial aneurysms have been based on experience of developed countries with great resources and a state of art health care. The purpose of the current study is to correlate the outcome of patients operated for intracranial aneurysms. reported from intensive hig...

| description | Many recent series of surgery for intracranial aneurysms have been based on experience of developed countries with great resources and a state of art health care. The purpose of the current study is to correlate the outcome of patients operated for intracranial aneurysms. reported from intensive high technology neurosurgical centers with the results of low technology, environment, where we practice. Between January 1986 and December 1996, 337 patients with intracranial aneurysms were operated on at the Servidores do Estado Hospital. We retrospectively reviewed the medical and radiologic records and compared the outcome of this group with other series derived from developed countries. The overall mortality of this series was 6.9%. Of the 313 good grades surgical patients, the mortality was 4.7% and the sucessfull results were obtained in 88.8% individuals. We conclude that patients harboring intracranial aneurysms can be satisfactory handled in less developed nations, if a meticulous intraoperative technique is employed, even though sophisticated technology and equipments are not available. |
