Trastornos neurológicos en cirugía cardíaca: diagnóstico de tumoraciones cerebrales durante el postoperatorio

The incidence of neurologic disorders in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery is high and usually due to a combination of pre- and intraoperative factors. We present 2 patients with brain tumors diagnosed in the immediate postoperative period after sudden onset of neurologic dysfunction. Image studies yielded clinically useful information in these 2 cases.
