    Abstract:
    These problems arising during the treatment of increased intracranial pressure (ICP) were analysed on the basis of own clinical material with consideration of different therapeutic methods--pharmacological and aggressive. Statistical analysis (contingency tables) showed that the treatment consisting of dexamethason, mannitol and furosemid was the most efficient in the group of patient with increased ICP in the range 15-30 mmHg. In patients with ICP in the range 30-50 mmHg, where other aggressive methods of treatment had failed, the most efficient treatment was cranio-dural decompression.
