The intra-neuroendoscopic technique (INET): a modified minimally invasive technique for evacuation of brain parenchyma hematomas.

ABSTRACT: Background:Minimally invasive endoscopic hematoma evacuation is widely used in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage. However, this technique still has room for improvement. The intra-neuroendoscopic technique (INET) is a modified minimally invasive technique, and we report its safety and efficacy in evacuating brain parenchyma hematomas by comparing it with cranial puncture and drainage operation (CPDO). Methods:The frontal, temporal, or occipital approaches were used according to the site of bleeding. The preoperative and postoperative hematoma volumes, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, Cerebral State Index (CSI), hematoma evacuation rate, operation time, complications, and 30-day mortality and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) were retrospectively compared between the two groups. Results:A total of 98 patients were enrolled. The evacuation rate (84 ± 7.1% versus 51.0 ± 8.4%, p = 0.00), 7-day GCS (11.8 ± 1.2 versus 10.4 ± 1.5, p = 0.01), and CSI (87.1 ± 8.7 versus 80.6 ± 10.2, p = 0.02) were higher, and the 30-day mortality rate (1.9% versus 15.6%, p = 0.036) was lower in the INET group. However, the operation time was longer in the INET group than in the control group (65.2 ± 12.5?min versus 45.6 ± 10.9?min, p = 0.000). Multivariable logistic regression showed that a good medium-term outcome (GOS scores 4-5) was significantly associated with INET (odds ratio (OR) 3.514, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.463-8.440, p = 0.005), age under 65?years (OR 1.402, 95% CI, 1.041-1.888, p = 0.026), and hematoma volume less than 50?ml (OR 1.974, 95% CI 1.302-2.993, p = 0.001). Conclusions:INET surgery for brain parenchyma hematoma evacuation is a safe and efficient modified technique. This technique is minimally invasive, has less complications, and may be helpful in providing optimal outcomes for selected patients. Trial registration:ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02515903.

Project description:Objective: The surgical technique, safety, efficacy, and clinical application value of the intra-neuroendoscopic technique (INET) for the treatment of subacute-chronic and chronic septal subdural hematoma was investigated based on the structure and pathological features of the hematoma wall, and the critical factors of hematoma growth and recurrence were determined, in order to provide reference for clinical drug treatment. Methods: This was non-randomized concurrent control study. A total of 94 patients who met the inclusion criteria were recruited between May 2015 and February 2019 and were divided into the INET treatment group (INET group, 45 cases) and the burr hole drainage (BHD) treatment group (control group, 49 cases). The hematoma fluid components and the morphological structure and pathological characteristics of the hematoma wall were analyzed, and the surgical duration, subdural drainage tube (SDT) placement duration, intracranial infection rate, Bender grade at the 1 month post-operative follow-up and hematoma recurrence rate within the 6 months of post-operative follow-up were compared between the two groups. A multiple logistic regression model was established to analyze the risk factors associated with recurrence within 6 months. Results: Intraoperative endoscopy showed that the adhesion bands that formed early in the hematoma cavity were strip-like and that those that formed late were lock-column-like. The hematoma cavity was divided into different-sized chambers with by these strips/columns. Pathological sections of cyst wall reveled angiogenesis inside the cyst and mucus-like changes, rupture and hemorrhage in the vascular wall. Obvious inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrous connective tissue hyperplasia were observed in the cyst wall. The osmotic pressure of the hematoma fluid was not significantly different from that of the peripheral venous blood [(296.7 ± 10.3) mOsm/kg vs. (291.5 ± 12.4) mOsm/kg, p = 0.68]. However, the D-dimer contents which reflect the severity of fibrinolysis in the hematoma and the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin 6 (IL-6) were significantly higher in the hematoma fluid than in the peripheral venous blood. The surgery duration for the INET group was significantly longer than that for the control group [(60.4 ± 10.6) min vs. (44.1 ± 9.8) min, p = 0.00], but both the hematoma recurrence rate within 6 months of post-operative follow-up (4.4 vs. 24.5%, p = 0.00) and the SDT placement duration [(2.1 ± 0.6) d vs. (3.9 ± 0.7) d, p = 0.00] for the INET group were both lower than those for the control group. The intracranial infection rate did not differ significantly between the two groups (4.4 vs. 10.2%, p = 0.50). The overall effective rate of the Bender grade at 1 month of follow-up did not differ significantly between the two groups (95.6 vs. 87.8%, p = 0.32), but the proportion of patients who recovered to Bender grade 0 with no symptoms was significantly higher in the INET group than in the control group (86.7 vs. 67.3%, p = 0.03). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that INET surgery [odds ratio (OR) 3.71, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.31-9.62, p = 0.02], age of 65 years or younger (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.05-2.87, p = 0.03) and unilateral subdural hematoma (OR 1.76, 95% CI 1.05-3.41, p = 0.02) were independent factors that reduced the post-operative recurrence rate. Conclusion: The INET surgical plan based on the structure and pathological features of the subacute-chronic and chronic subdural hematoma wall can reduce the recurrence rate and improve the clinical prognosis.

Project description:BackgroundMinimally invasive surgery (MIS) for evacuation of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has shown promise but there remains a need for intraoperative performance assessment considering the wide range of evacuation effectiveness. In this feasibility study, we analyzed the benefit of intraoperative 3-dimensional imaging during navigated endoscopy-assisted ICH evacuation by mechanical clot fragmentation and aspiration.Methods18 patients with superficial or deep supratentorial ICH underwent MIS for clot evacuation followed by intraoperative computerized tomography (iCT) or cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging. Eligibility for MIS required (a) availability of intraoperative iCT or CBCT, (b) spontaneous lobar or deep ICH without vascular pathology, (c) a stable ICH volume (20-90 ml), (d) a reduced level of consciousness (GCS 5-14), and (e) a premorbid mRS ≤ 1. Demographic, clinical, and radiographic patient data were analyzed by two independent observers.ResultsNine female and 9 male patients with a median age of 76 years (42-85) presented with an ICH score of 3 (1-4), GCS of 10 (5-14) and ICH volume of 54 ± 26 ml. Clot fragmentation and aspiration was feasible in all cases and intraoperative imaging determined an overall evacuation rate of 80 ± 19% (residual hematoma volume: 13 ± 17 ml; p < 0.0001 vs. Pre-OP). Based on the intraoperative imaging results, 1/3rd of all patients underwent an immediate re-aspiration attempt. No patient experienced hemorrhagic complications or required conversion to open craniotomy. However, routine postoperative CT imaging revealed early hematoma re-expansion with an adjusted evacuation rate of 59 ± 30% (residual hematoma volume: 26 ± 37 ml; p < 0.001 vs. Pre-OP).ConclusionsRoutine utilization of iCT or CBCT imaging in MIS for ICH permits direct surgical performance assessment and the chance for immediate re-aspiration, which may optimize targeting of an ideal residual hematoma volume and reduce secondary revision rates.
