Zusammenfassung

An Hand von sieben verifizierten und einem nicht verifizierten Fall von Hirntuberkulom werden die diagnostischen und therapeutischen Gesichtspunkte dieser Krankheit besprochen. Die Exstirpation des Granuloms mit anschließenden Streptomycingaben scheint die beste Behandlungsart zu sein. Sollte die ungünstige Lage des Tumors den radikalen Eingriff nicht gestatten, so kommen palliative Maßnahmen in Frage, um so den intrakraniellen Druck zu verringern.

Summary

Seven cases of verified and one non verified case of intracranial tuberculoma are described in this paper. Methods of diagnosis and treatment are discussed. The best way of treatment seems to be the radical excision of the granuloma with subsequent streptomycin medication. In cases where the tumor is unfavourably situated more palliative interventions are indicated in order to decrease the intracranial tension.

Résumé

Sept cas vérifiés de tuberculome intracrânien et un cas non vérifié sont le sujet d'une discussion dans cet article. Les différentes méthodes de diagnostic et de thérapie sont discutées. Le meilleur traitement semble être l'extirpation radicale du granulome suivie par une traitement énergique avec streptomycine. Dans les cas où la tumeur n'est pas favorablement située, on devrait profiter des interventions plutôt palliatives, afin de contrôler la hypertension intracrânienne.

Riassunto

L'A. riferisce su 8 casi di tubercolomi (3 infratentoriali e 5 supratentoriali). L'esistenza di altri focolai tubercolari oltre al tubercoloma cervicale, è molto importante per la diagnosi. Il pericolo post-operatorio di una meningite dopo l'escissione chirurgica di un tubercoloma è molto diminuito dopo l'introduzione di streptomicina dal giorno dell'intervento in poi. Per i tubercolomi del midollo allungato, del ponte e della regione del terzo ventricolo, l'A. raccomanda l'operazione palliativa.

Resumen

El Autor refiere sobra 8 casos de tuberculomas (3 infratenturiales y 5 sopratenturiales). La existencia de otros hogares tuberculares, además de el tuberculoma cervical, es muy importante por el diagóstico. El peligro post-operatorio de una meningitis después de la ablación quirurquica de un tuberculoma es muy disminuido después de la introducciôn de streptomicina desde el dśia de la operación en adelante. Por los tuberculomas de el meollo oblungado, del puente y de la región de el tercero ventriculo, el A. recomienda la operación paliativa.
