The role of leukocytosis in the differential diagnosis of cerebral apoplexy
The paper emphasizes the diagnostic value of leukocytosis in distinguishing between hemorrhages and softening of the brain. The conclusions are based on the analysis of a significant hospital and sectional material (156 cases). In 76% of fresh cerebral hemorrhages, leukocytosis reaches 17,000-24,000. With softening of the brain without concomitant inflammatory processes, the level of leukocytes does not increase. Leukocytosis in cerebral hemorrhages is the result of irritation of the hypothalamic centers due to increased intracranial pressure.
