Remote Hemorrhage after Burr Hole Drainage of Chronic Subdural Hematoma
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) and symptomatic subdural hygroma are common diseases that require neurosurgical management. Burr hole trephination is the most popular surgical treatment for CSDH and subdural hygroma because of a low recurrence rate and low morbidity compared with craniotomy with membranectomy, and twist-drill craniotomy. Many reports suggest that placing a catheter in the subd...
متن کاملSingle burr hole drainage for chronic subdural haematoma.
Chronic subdural haematoma is a common neurosurgical condition and surprisingly surgical treatment ranges from twist drill craniostomy to more radical membranectomy. However, the outcome is generally favourable with appropriate therapy. This retrospective study is aimed at analyzing the result of single burr hole drainage of such haematoma under local anaesthesia over a period of fifteen years....
متن کاملA comparative study of treatments for chronic subdural hematoma: burr hole drainage versus burr hole drainage with irrigation.
Although chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is one of the most common entities encountered in neurosurgical practice, optimal surgical treatment for CSDH remains controversial. This study retrospectively compared results for CSDH between burr hole drainage alone and burr hole drainage with irrigation. Ninety-two patients with CSDH underwent surgery at our institution from January 1998 through Dec...
متن کاملBrain stem hemorrhage following burr hole drainage for chronic subdural hematoma-case report-.
A 76-year-old man presented with brain stem hemorrhage after burr-hole drainage for bilateral chronic subdural hematomas. Neuroimaging demonstrated resolution of the transtentorial herniation but also detected new brain stem hemorrhage, manifesting as gait disturbance. He recovered after conservative treatment. Asymmetrical and rapid decompression, which leads to vascular disruption and/or sudd...
متن کاملManagement of chronic subdural haematoma: burr hole drainage, replacement with Hartmann's solution, and closed-system drainage.
Although the treatment of chronic subdural haematoma by burr hole drainage has been performed in the past with or without using a closed drainage system, the problem of intracranial air entrapment still persists and can cause a deterioration in the level of consciousness or seizures in the postoperative period. Cerebral infarction may also develop a few days after surgery because of the intracr...
