ABSTRACT

El Hematoma Subdural crónico es una patología relativamente frecuente que predomina en adultos mayores. Es de inicio insidioso, su diagnóstico se basa en el cuadro clínico y estudios radiológicos como la tomografía computarizada (TAC), el manejo es predominante quirúrgico y su pronóstico es bueno. Se analiza en el presente estudio, una muestra de 95 expedientes clínicos de pacientes con dicho diagnóstico, síntomas iniciales, TAC pre y post diagnóstico, tratamiento y evolución...

ABSTRACT

AIMS: A series of cases with chronic subdural hematoma operated upon by residents in neurosurgery is analysed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 159 patients treated between 1998 and 2001 were included in the study. Mean age was 76.4 years and male/female ratio was 1.7/1. The patients were classified both on admission and at discharge according to the Markwalder scale. The standard operative procedure consisted of an enlarged single burr-hole, rinsing the subdural space with iso-osmotic saline solution and insertion of a subdural drain. CONCLUSION: In CSDH, operation by the residents is safe and the results are comparable to those of the major series of the literature as the surgical procedure is standardized.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo é analisar a evolução de pacientes com hematoma subdural crônico em relação aos achados do coagulograma. Foram analisados 161 pacientes operados no Hospital das Clínicas-UNICAMP entre abril de 1994 e 2000. Foi detectado um predomínio do sexo masculino (86,3 por cento), da cor branca (85,1 por cento) e da faixa etária na quinta década (mediana 57 anos). O estudo mostrou mortalidade maior no período pós-operatório entre os pacientes com valores de RNI (international normalized ratio) superiores a 1,25 e/ou trombocitopenia (p<0,001 e p=0,004, respectivamente) e mortalidade menor para os pacientes com antecedente de traumatismo cranioencefálico (76 por cento) (p=0,044). Os resultados ressaltam a importância da avaliação pré-operatória com o coagulograma a fim de se corrigir possíveis alterações
