Resumen

Presentamos tres casos de hematoma intracerebral crónico capsulado (HICC), diagnosticados preoperatoriamente por TAC de tumor cerebral.

Los pacientes, de 18, 19 y 26 años, fueron intervenidos quirúrgicamente; uno por técnica estereotáxica y a través de craneotomía los dos restantes, realizándose biopsia de la cápsula en todos ellos. El examen histológico mostró un hematoma rodeado de tejidos de granulación y fibroso, sin hallazgo tumoral ni de malformación vascular.

El resultado clínico fue de recuperación neurológica completa en todos ellos.

Los controles con TAC y RM, en los dos casos de mayor tiempo de evolución, 18 meses y 4 años respectivamente, descubrieron una lesión residual, cuya correspondencia histológica se discute.
