Surgical treatment of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common type of stroke,and its fatality is high.The baseline hematoma volume and hematoma growth are the predictive factors for the poor outcome of the patients.Previous studies have shown that surgical evacuation of hematoma can reduce the hematoma volume and improve the outcome.However,several recent randomized controlled trials of craniotomy hematoma evacuation for ICH and a Meta-analysis have shown that it is no more beneficial than conservative treatment.The previous evidence of minimally invasive evacuation of hematoma for the treatment of ICH has suggested that it has potential benefits for patients with ICH; however,further research is needed to confirm it.
