A clinical comparison of endoscopic surgery versus craniotomy in hypertensive basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the clinical effects and characteristics between hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) and haematoma clearance by craniotomy for basal ganglia.Methods Clinical data of 50 patients with HICH in basal ganglia were collected,including operation duration,amount of intraoperative bleeding,cleared amount of haematoma,postoperative intracranial infection,and GOS at the sixth month after operation.The patients were divided into endoscopic group and craniotomy group.Clinical effects were analyzed by using GOS at the sixth month as a prognosis index.Results Preoperatively,the two groups showed no significant difference in any type of clinical materials(all P ＞ 0.05).Operation durations were (1.5 ± 0.8) h and (3.5 ± 1.1) h (P ＜ 0.05),respectively; amounts of intraoperative bleeding were (40.0 ± 19.7) rnl and (40.6 ± 13.2) ml (P ＜ 0.05),respectively; clearance rates of haematoma were (92.6 ± 9.4) ％ and (73.1 ± 21.1) ％ (P ＜ 0.05),respectively; cases of postoperative intracranial infections were 0 and 3 (P ＜ 0.05),respectively,for the endoscopy group and the craniotomy group.GOS prognosis at 6 months showed 7 cases of good recovery,12 cases of slight disability,2 cases of severe disability,1 case of vegetative state,and 1 death in the endoscopy group;6 cases of good recovery,9 cases of slight disability,6 cases of severe disability,3 case of vegetative state,and 1 death in the craniotomy group.Prognosis was better in the endoscopy group than in the craniotomy group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Endoscopic surgery is an efficient and minimally invasive and operating technique for the treatment of hypertensive basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage.
