Stereotactic Catheter Drainage Versus Conventional Craniotomy for Severe Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage in the Basal Ganglia.

ABSTRACT: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the most devastating forms of cerebrovascular pathology. However, its treatment remains a matter of debate among neurosurgeons and neurologists. The study was to explore the efficacy of minimally invasive surgery (stereotactic catheter drainage, SCD) for patients with severe intracerebral hemorrhage (Glasgow Coma Scale, GCS) score ? 8 and hematoma volume ? 30 cm3) and to determine predisposing factors for good clinical outcome. A total of 75 patients with severe ICH were included in this retrospective study. Patients were assigned to the SCD group (n=38) or the conventional craniotomy group (n=37). Patients were followed up for 12 months postoperatively, and their clinical parameters were compared. During the operation, the SCD group exhibited a lower bleeding volume (p<0.001) and shorter operating time (p<0.001) than the conventional craniotomy group. For postoperative efficacy, the rates of pneumonia and tracheotomy were lower (p=0.002 and p=0.027, respectively), and the duration of hospital and neurosurgery intensive care unit (NSICU) in days were significantly shorter in the SCD group (p=0.046 and p=0.047, respectively). Furthermore, patients in the SCD group showed improved modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at discharge (p<0.018) and at 12-month follow up (p<0.001). Predisposing factors for good clinical outcomes were hematoma volume (<50 cm3, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.043-1.956, p<0.046), initial GCS score (>6, 95% CI: 3.248-187.466, p<0.001), hypertension (none, 95% CI: 1.440-2.922, p<0.001), and treatment modality (SCD, 95% CI: 1.422-3.226, p<0.001). Taken together, SCD surgery is safe and effective in patients with severe ICH and has fewer complications and better clinical outcomes than conventional craniotomy.

Project description:BackgroundTo compare the long-term therapeutic effects of stereotactic aspiration (SA), endoscopic evacuation (EE), and open craniotomy (OC) in the surgical treatment of spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage and explore the appropriate clinical indications for each technique.MethodsMultiple-treatment inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW)-adjusted logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of these techniques. The primary and secondary outcomes were 6-month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and mortality rates, respectively.ResultsA total of 703 patients were ultimately enrolled. For the entire cohort, the 6-month mortality rate was significantly higher (OR 2.396, 95% CI: 1.865-3.080), and the 6-month functional outcome was significantly worse (OR 1.359, 95% CI: 1.091-1.692) for SA than that of EE. The 6-month mortality rate for OC was significantly higher (OR 1.395, 95% CI: 1.059-1.837) than that of EE. Further subgroup analysis was stratified by initial hematoma volume and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score. The mortality rate for SA was significantly higher for patients with hematoma volume of 20-40 mL (OR 6.226, 95% CI: 3.848-10.075), 40-80 mL (OR 2.121, 95% CI: 1.492-3.016), and ≥80 mL (OR 5.544, 95% CI: 3.315-9.269) than in the same subgroups of EE. The functional outcomes for SA were significantly worse than that of EE for hematoma volume subgroups of 40-80 mL (OR 1.424, 95% CI: 1.039-1.951) and ≥80 mL (OR 4.224, 95% CI: 1.655-10.776). The mortality rate for SA was significantly higher than that of EE for the GCS score subgroups of 6-8 (OR 2.082, 95% CI: 1.410-3.076) and 3-5 (OR 2.985, 95% CI: 1.904-4.678). The mortality rate for OC was significantly higher for the GCS score of 3-5 subgroup (OR 1.718, 95% CI: 1.115-2.648), and a tendency for a higher mortality rate of 6-8 subgroup (OR 1.442, 95% CI: 0.965-2.156) than that of EE.ConclusionsEE can decrease the 6-month mortality rate and improve the 6-month functional outcomes of spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage in patients with a hematoma volume ≥40 mL. EE can decrease the 6-month mortality rate of spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage in patients with a GCS score of 3-8.

Project description:A large number of clinical studies suggested that surgery might be a better choice than conservative treatment for treating hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage in the middle-aged and elderly. Stereotactic puncture can reduce the mass effect caused by hematoma, reduce the intervention of body homeostasis, reduce brain tissue damage, and improve the prognosis of patients with cerebral hemorrhage. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the efficacy of stereotactic puncture and craniotomy in elderly patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. A search strategy was designed to search in databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CNKI, Wanfang database and relevant references. Literature on the efficacy and safety of different surgical methods for hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in the middle-aged and elderly were retrieved. The search time was until August 17, 2022. Keywords included "hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage," "stereotactic hematoma removal," "craniotomy." After the literature search, 2 researchers independently conducted literature screening, quality evaluation of included trials and data extraction. RevMan5.4 software was used to perform a Meta-analysis on the operation time, hospital stay, postoperative Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, postoperative daily activity ability, postoperative complications and neurological prognosis scores included in the included studies. A total of 1988 samples were included in 9 studies. 1022 patients underwent stereotactic hematoma removal, and 968 patients underwent craniotomy hematoma removal. The orientation group had more advantages in the length of hospital stay, postoperative disability, pulmonary infection, intracranial infection and digestive tract ulcer, and the difference was statistically significant (P < .05). In addition, the length of stay (I²= 83%) of the included articles had good homogeneity (I²< 50%), and there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in operation time, postoperative GCS score, postoperative daily activity ability, and neurological prognosis score (P > .05). The meta-analysis indicate that compared to craniotomy for hematoma removal, stereotactic hematoma removal can reduce the postoperative disability rate, intracranial infection rate, lung infection rate, and digestive tract ulcer rate in middle-aged and elderly patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.

Project description:ImportanceLimited evidence is available concerning optimal seizure prophylaxis after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH).ObjectiveTo evaluate which of 4 seizure prophylaxis strategies provides the greatest net benefit for patients with sICH.Design, setting, and participantsThis decision analysis used models to simulate the following 4 common scenarios: (1) a 60-year-old man with low risk of early (≤7 days after stroke) (10%) and late (3.6% or 9.8%) seizures and average risk of short- (9%) and long-term (30%) adverse drug reaction (ADR); (2) an 80-year-old woman with low risk of early (10%) and late (3.6% or 9.8%) seizures and high short- (24%) and long-term (80%) ADR risks; (3) a 55-year-old man with high risk of early (19%) and late (34.8% or 46.2%) seizures and low short- (9%) and long-term (30%) ADR risks; and (4) a 45-year-old woman with high risk of early (19%) and late (34.8% or 46.2%) seizures and high short- (18%) and long-term (60%) ADR risks.InterventionsThe following 4 antiseizure drug strategies were included: (1) conservative, consisting of short-term (7-day) secondary early-seizure prophylaxis with long-term therapy after late seizure; (2) moderate, consisting of long-term secondary early-seizure prophylaxis or late-seizure therapy; (3) aggressive, consisting of long-term primary prophylaxis; and (4) risk guided, consisting of short-term secondary early-seizure prophylaxis among low-risk patients (2HELPS2B score, 0), short-term primary prophylaxis among patients at higher risk (2HELPS2B score, ≥1), and long-term secondary therapy for late seizure.Main outcomes and measuresQuality-adjusted life-years (QALYs).ResultsFor scenario 1, the risk-guided strategy (8.13 QALYs) was preferred over the conservative (8.08 QALYs), moderate (8.07 QALYs), and aggressive (7.88 QALYs) strategies. For scenario 2, the conservative strategy (2.18 QALYs) was preferred over the risk-guided (2.17 QALYs), moderate (2.09 QALYs), and aggressive (1.15 QALYs) strategies. For scenario 3, the aggressive strategy (9.21 QALYs) was preferred over the risk-guided (8.98 QALYs), moderate (8.93 QALYs), and conservative (8.77 QALYs) strategies. For scenario 4, the risk-guided strategy (11.53 QALYs) was preferred over the conservative (11.23 QALYs), moderate (10.93 QALYs), and aggressive (8.08 QALYs) strategies. Sensitivity analyses suggested that short-term strategies (conservative and risk guided) are preferred under most scenarios, and the risk-guided strategy performs comparably to or better than alternative strategies in most settings.Conclusions and relevanceThis decision analytical model suggests that short-term (7-day) prophylaxis dominates longer-term therapy after sICH. Use of the 2HELPS2B score to guide clinical decisions for initiation of short-term primary vs secondary early-seizure prophylaxis should be considered for all patients after sICH.
