Abstract

Perinatal brain defeсt at children considerably changes clinical symptoms of brain injury, that occurred after the operation. The results of 43 children (aged from 6 months to 7 years) with brain injury, been operated because of progressing hydrocephaly were analyzed. It was established, that clinical symptoms of brain injury differ: they have low expressiveness of focal and general symptoms, that was caused by brain tissue decrease and draining system, that influence on volumetric process in a skull cavity and causes it’s reduction. Chronic subdural hematomas at children with implanted shunt systems can be not only complications of shunting operations, but also result of brain injury.
