ABSTRACT
The outcome of patients with malignant middle cerebral artery infarction (mMCAI) is very poor.The mortality of conservative medical treatment is as high as 80%.Several randomized controlled trials published in recent years have shown that hemicraniectomy can significantly reduce the mortality of mMCAI.It is a life-saving therapeutic measure for patients,even if so in patients older than 60 years of age.
