    AbstractNot only the pathology but also the neurosurgical procedure itself can lead to an impairment of cerebral structures. This may cause neurological symptoms like confusion, disorientation or cognitive deficits which have hardly been noticed until now. Neuroprotective substances can help to reduce this. As an example of the effectiveness, based on our own experiences and international trials, two different medical drugs, Nimodipine and Cerebrolysin, are presented. In conclusion one has to realize that nowadays neurosurgeons have to focus their interest more and more to neuroprotective adjuvant treatment possibilities.Copyright 2001 S. Karger AG, Basel
