Zusammenfassung

Die Durchführung einer EKT-Behandlung sollte auch beim Vorliegen eines Kavernoms der Medulla oblongata mit früherer Blutung nicht grundsätzlich ausgeschlossen werden, erfordert aber entsprechende Voraussetzungen wie neurochirurgische Konsultation, ein striktes Blutdruckmonitoring und eine besondere Information des Patienten. Summary: Cavernous malformation in the medulla oblongata with previous bleeding is not in principle a reason for excluding electroconvulsive therapy. However, before such intervention is carried out, certain preconditions should be met such as neurosurgical consultation, close blood pressure monitoring and a special medical information of the patient.

Abstract

The implementation of ECT treatment should not be ruled out in principle even if there is a cavernoma of the medulla oblongata with previous bleeding, but it requires appropriate conditions such as neurosurgical consultation, strict blood pressure monitoring and special information from the patient.
