  • Title: [Decerebrate rigidity in craniocerebral injuries (clinico-statistical analysis].
    Author: Budashevskiĭ BG, Balashov AN.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1986; (4):14-9. PubMed ID: 3766002.
    Abstract:
    Decerebrate rigidity (DR) is encountered in 12% of cases with craniocerebral trauma. Statistically significant prevalence of DR in brain compression is shown. Examination of 131 patients with traumatic DR revealed the location of the lesion and the causes of brain compression which led to DR most frequently. The authors distinguish a group of clinico-laboratory signs which have diagnostic and prognostic importance in these patients.
