Vincent finally decided to perform a craniotomy and, on December 17, 1937, found, after a 'Right frontal bone flap; with fronto-temporal basis' a 'Slack brain, without actual softening in the area displayed. Gyri separated by edema, but not atrophied. Puncture of the right lateral ventricle produced no spontaneous flow of cerebrospinal fluid but fluid escaped with pressure on the brain surface'. An attempt was made to inflate the right lateral ventricle with 20 cc water (saline) but did not succeed despite multiple attempts.
Z góry bardzo dziękuję
