Abstract

Foram estudados 190 casos de AVC autopsiados no Departamento de Patologia da Fundação Faculdade Federal de Ciências Médicas de Porto Alegre, tendo sido encontrados 94 (49,4%) casos de hemorragia, 67 (35,26%) de infartos e, em 29 (15,26%) casos, observou-se associação de hemorragia e infarto. Tanto os infartos quanto as hemorragias foram mais freqüentes em homens que em mulheres. As médias de idade foram 34,9 anos para as hemorragias e 48,6 anos para os infartos. Dos AVC hemorrágicos, a variedade intraparenquimatosa foi a mais freqüente. Os infartos predominaram em território da artéria cerebral média. As causas determinantes de hemorragia foram principalmente a hipertensão arterial sistêmica e processos infecciosos. No grupo dos infartos, a aterosclerose predominou.A retrospective study of 190 postmortem examinations of cerebrovascular disease from the Department of Pathology was carried out. We found 94 cases (49.47%) of hemorrhage, 67 (35.26%) of infarction and 29 patients (15.26%) with hemorrhage and infarction; both were more frequent in males. Among the hemorrhagic cerebral vascular disease the intracerebral hemorrhage was more frequent. The cerebral infarction was more frequent in the territory of the middle cerebral artery. Arterial hypertension was the most common cause of cerebral hemorrhage and the cause in the great majority of the cerebral infarction cases was atherosclerosis.
