N2  - INTRODUCTION AND METHOD: A retrospective study was made of the incidence of stroke in the Dalmatian region (Split) during the war in the Republic of Croatia (1991-1995), to determine whether the war had affected the incidence of stroke in the population at risk. The data obtained was compared with data regarding the incidence of strokes in the pre-war period (1986-1990). RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: There was a small but significant increase in the incidence of strokes during the war period. There was also a considerable increase in patients with primary intracerebral hemorrhage during this period. The possible causes of this increase in patients with primary intracerebral hemorrhage are discussed.<p /> <p>Language: es</p>
