Clinical and statistical analysis of information gained from observation over 1 661 patients with craniocerebral injury treated at neurosurgical clinics in 1967-74 confirmed the proposition advanced at the Leningrad Polenov Neurosurgical Institute, namely that operation for correcting compression of the brain by an intracranial hematoma should be performed as early as possible after the injury and no later than 3 hours following hospitalization.
