[So-called mirror injuries in severe head trauma].

Severe head traumas cause high mortality. It was the reason to analyze such a group of patients, treated in the Neurosurgical Department of the CCH MMA in the years 1980-1990. All cases of mirror injuries were divided into three groups. The lesions of frontal and temporal lobes present brain-stem lesion like syndromes. Personality disorders were associated with lesions of both frontal lobes. The third syndrome is caused by focal lesions according to their location. The authors discuss medical and surgical treatment and stress the importance of early brain protection.
