Abstract

ABSTRACT
L’hématome cérébelleux est une forme redoutée des accidents vasculaires cérébraux à cause de par sa proximité avec le tronc cérébral et sa localisation dans l’espace exiguë qu’est la fosse cérébrale postérieure. La cause hypertensive est le plus souvent retrouvée. Les auteurs rapportent un cas d’hématome cérébelleux pris en charge au Centre des Urgences de Yaoundé. La dérivation ventriculaire externe a fait suite à l’évacuation par craniotomie de l’hématome. L’évolution post opératoire a été marquée par des complications à type de tétraplégie régressive, d’infections nosocomiales et de thrombophlébite.


RÉSUMÉ
Cerebellar hematoma is a dreaded form of stroke. This is due to its proximity to the brain stem and its location in the cramped space of the posterior cerebral fossa. Cerebellar hemorrhages are mostly caused by hypertension. We report a case of cerebellar hemorrhage that was managed at the Yaounde Emergency Center. External ventricular derivation followed craniotomy for evacuation of the hematoma evacuation. Post chirurgical course was marked by complications such as regressive tetraplegia, nosocomial infections and thrombophlebitis.
