SP - 369 EP - 372 VL - 53 IS - 5 N2 - In Neurosurgical Clinic of Military Medical Academy 33 wounded persons with craniocerebral injuries (CCI) from Vukovar battlefield were treated from September 16 to December 3. After the follow-up period of average 48 months the outcome of treatment was analyzed compared to the clinical status on admission and to the extent of cerebral lesion. All wounded with minor CCI (GCS = 15) and majority with mild injuries (GCS = 13-14) had the good outcome, and all the wounded with severe injuries (GCS = 3-8) died (p < 0.01). After unilobar penetrating CCI the outcome was mostly good, but after multilobar and transventricular injuries the outcome was worse or lethal (p < 0.01). Total mortality rate was 27.3%. Our conclusion is that bad clinical status on admission and more extensive cerebral lesions correlate with worse outcome of treatment of war CCI.
