摘要
A retrospective analysis of 183 consecutive patients operated on for ruptured cerebral aneurysms and surviving at least one year revealed appearance of postoperative epilepsy in 14 cases (8 per cent) on an average of 10 months (range 0-23 months) after the operation. Factors associated with the development of secondary epilepsy were localization of the aneurysm on the middle cerebral artery, temporary clipping intraoperatively, wrapping technique to treat the aneurysm, and vasospasm seen on the postoperative control angiogram. Intraoperative and/or postoperative ischaemia seems to be the crucial phenomenon favouring the development of epilepsy. Identification of the risk factors may help to focus the anti-epileptic prophylaxis in cases prone to develop seizures. © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
