A retrospective study was performed on 109 patients who died in the neurosurgical ICU. We investigated the problem of outcome prediction in relation to diagnosis, status at admission and several risk factors. We analysed the meaning of diagnostical and therapeutical treatment and compared the clinical diagnosis to the neuropathological findings.
