Relation of cerebral vasospasm to operative findings of subarachnoid blood around ruptured aneurysms.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To analyse the occurrence of hardware-related complications in patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS), over a long period of time. METHOD:All patients operated on with DBS at our institution between 1993 and 2002 were followed with respect to adverse events related to the implanted hardware. RESULTS:One...
