Abstract:Abstract: Objective?To investigate the therapeutic effect and safety on neuroendoscopy-assisted hematoma-evacuation surgery followed by bone flap repositioning for hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage with concurrent cerebral herniation.?Methods?Clinical data of 54 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage and concurrent unilateral mydriasis from Jan, 2015 to Jun, 2017 underwent hematoma-evacuation surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who presented with bilateral mydriasis or were diagnosed with intracranial aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, or moyamoya disease were precedently excluded. Neuroendoscopy-assisted hematoma-evacuation surgery followed by bone flap repositioning was performed in 23 patients and ordinary hematoma-evacuation craniectomy followed by bone flap removal was in the rest 31 patients, respectively. The surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, thoroughness of hematoma-evacuation, postoperative rehemorrhage, cerebral infarction, death, and 3-mon GOS (Glasgow Outcome Scale) score were compared between the two groups.?Results?Neuroendoscopic surgery took advantages over ordinary craniectomy in the surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, evidenced by the significant statistical differences. However, there was no statistical difference in thoroughness of hematoma-evacuation, the incidence of postoperative rehemorrhage and cerebral infarction between the two groups. Although the overall 3-month postoperative GOS score of patients in the neuroendoscopic surgery group seemed no significant difference compared with the ordinary craniectomy group, it was showed that patients lived in a persistent vegetative state or with severe disability were reduced and those lived with moderate disability were increased.?Conclusion?Neuroendoscopy-assisted hematoma-evacuation surgery has superior performances for hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage with concurrent cerebral herniation because of its satisfactory safety, less surgery-related injury, and reduced incidences of persistent vegetative state and severe disability.
