    Abstract:
    The features of the clinical course and diagnosis of intracerebral hematomas are described from the analysis of 57 patients with post-traumatic intracerebral hematomas. It is shown that late formation of hematomas may occur. The results of surgical management of hematomas are analyzed. Wide trephination followed by radical removal of the hematoma is the optimum surgical procedure. It is noted that the results of treatment are determined by the rate of formation and volume of the hematoma and the patient's age.
