ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To detect the influencing factors for posttraumatic hydrocephalus in patients with severe traumatic brain injuries and provide theoretical reference for clinical treatment.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Retrospective study was made on 139 patients with severe traumatic brain injuries in our hospital. The patients were divided into two groups hydrocephalus group and non-hydrocephalus group. Single factor analysis and multiple factor analysis were used to determine the related factors and hydrocephalus. Multiple factor analysis was conducted with logistic regression.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Posttraumatic hydrocephalus was found in 19.42% of patients. Age(OR equal to 1.050, 95%CI 1.012-1.090), decompressive craniectomy (OR equal to 4.312, 95%CI 1.127-16.503), subarachnoid hemorrhage(OR equal to 43.421, 95%CI 7.835-240.652) and continuous lumbar drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (OR equal to 0.045, 95%CI 0.011-0.175) were screened out from nine factors as the influencing factors for posttraumatic hydrocephalus.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Risk factors for PTH are as follows age, decompressive craniectomy and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Continuous lumbar drainage of cerebrospinal fluid can greatly reduce posttraumatic hydrocephalus.</p>
