Abstract
Spontaneous cerebellar hematomas (CH) represent 5%–10% of
intracranial hemorrhages The purpose of this study was to
describe CH characteristics in patients admitted to the critical
care unit, to determine the prevalence of risk factors, to
describe the clinical presentation, the treatment and the
clinical situation at discharge. Thirty four consecutive
patients were included. The mean age was 67±15 years. In the
univariant analysis, only Glasgow Coma Score was associated with
high mortality. An hematoma diameter > 3 cm., intraventricular
hemorrhage and hydrocephalus were associated with mortality, but
without statistical significance.
