AbstractIntracranial hypertension and acute renal failure are frequent complications in polytraumatized patients with head trauma. This paper deals with the evolution of intracranial pressure during haemodialysis in two cases of traumatic coma. Significant changes in intracranial pressure were noted. Increase of intracranial pressure during haemodialysis was 7.6 mmHg for the first patient and 4.6 mmHg for the second patient. Prophylactic measures are discussed.
