In a study of a double cerebral hydatic cyst developed in a patient operated for another intracranial neurosurgical affection, the authors have determined the rate of growth of these cysts by repeated C.T. scan examinations. This rate was 4.5 cm a year, a value which is higher than other values classically accepted.

Background: Dysphagia is a common complication following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and is associated with an increased risk of aspiration pneumonia and poor outcomes.
Objectives: This study aimed to explore associated lesion patterns and contributing factors of post-ICH dysphagia, and predict dysphagia outcomes following ICH.
Design: A multicenter, prospective study.

Objectives: Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (ASAH) is a severe stroke type, preventable by screening for intracranial aneurysms followed by treatment in high-risk individuals. We aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for ASAH in the general population to identify high-risk individuals.
Design: We used the population-based prospective cohort studies of the United Kingdom (UK) Biobank for model development and the Trøndelag Health (HUNT) Study for model validation.

Background: Numerous noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT) markers have been reported and validated as effective predictors of hematoma expansion (HE). Our objective was to develop and validate a score based on NCCT markers and clinical characteristics to predict risk of HE in acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients.
Methods: We prospectively collected spontaneous ICH patients at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University to form the development cohort (n = 395) and at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University to establish the validation cohort (n = 139).
