Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic procedures are useful in chronic subdural hematoma especially when there are septations, solid/organized hematoma, and the presence of bridging or neovessels in the cavity. Visualizing the distal hematoma cavity by a rigid scope is challenging in large and curved ones due to the hindrance by the brain surface. Combining rigid endoscopy and brain retractor can overcome this limitation. METHODS A retrospective study of 248 patients managed by endoscopic technique was performed and the relevant literature was reviewed. RESULTS The brain retractor was used in all patients. Average operative time, subgaleal drainage duration, and hospital stay were 56 minutes, 3.1 days, and 4.6 days, respectively. The average preoperative Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score was 12, which improved to 14 and 15 in 223 and 23 patients, respectively at discharge. There were solid clots, septations, bridging vessels, curved hematoma cavities, rapid expansion of the brain after partial hematoma removal, and recurrences in 59, 52, 15, 49, 19, and 2 patients, respectively. There were 2 deaths, without any procedure-related mortality. CONCLUSIONS Endoscope was very effective and safe in the management of chronic subdural hematoma, especially in about 51% patients with solid clots, septations, and bridging vessels which could have been difficult to treat by conventional burr hole. It can avoid craniotomy in such patients. Good visualization and complete hematoma removal were possible with the help of an endoscope and brain retractor in about 27% of patients which could have been difficult with a rigid endoscope alone.

Abstract
Subdural hematoma (SDH) refers to the collection of blood between the dura matter and the arachnoid membrane. Advancements in imaging technology have enabled the categorization of SDH based on specific imaging characteristics, causative factors, and the onset of symptoms. Given that the prognosis of SDHs varies significantly and is contingent upon the size and chronicity of the hemorrhage, a comprehensive understanding of its subtypes may carry crucial treatment implications. For example, an acute SDH classically results from severe traumatic brain injury and appears as a homogenous, crescent-shaped hyperdense extra-axial collection. If not treated, over the course of 1-3 weeks, this hematoma will evolve into a sub-acute phenotype as a consequence of subdural effusion and demonstrate mixed-density hemorrhage on imaging. Chronic SDH (cSDH) becomes the end result of an untreated SDH, with neo-membranization and neo-angiogenesis from branches of the middle meningeal artery driving a mass-like growth pattern. This review article aims to elucidate the complex anatomical features of the end-stage cSDH, with a particular focus on reconceptualization of this entity based on its mass-like growth patterns, and how this is driving a shift towards endovascular treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy of neuroendoscopic hematoma evacuation (NHE) and burr hole craniotomy (BHC) for treating septated chronic subdural hematoma (sCSDH) and analyze the technical advantages of NHE in sCSDH treatment by data analysis. METHODS This study recruited 77 patients with sCSDH According to the type of operation, the patients were divided into NHE (n = 45) or BHC (n = 32) groups. Clinical data were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of NHE and BHC for treating sCSDH. RESULTS NHE demonstrated higher complete hematoma clearance and postoperative midline recovery rates and shorter subdural drainage and postoperative bed rest durations compared with BHC (P < 0.05). The average NHE time (72.27 ± 18.27 minutes) was longer than that of BHC (54.91 ± 16.04 minutes) (P < 0.05). The average follow-up period was 30.9 (range, 7-51) months. The results revealed that 1 and 12 cases recurred in the NHE (2.2%) and BHC (18.8%) groups, respectively (P < 0.05). Additionally, a statistically significant difference in the Modified Rankin Scale scores of the 2 groups was observed 6 months after the operation (P < 0.05). During the follow-up period, neither group demonstrated any obvious operative complications. CONCLUSIONS NHE is more effective than BHC for treating sCSDH and is worth popularizing on a large scale; however, ways to better deal with the outer membrane of hematoma warrant further consideration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a common central nervous system condition. Recent reports indicate that cSDH affects long-term prognosis; however, its definitive risk factors remain unknown. An antihypertensive drug, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi), can affect vascular permeability and cell proliferation processes, which may suppress the recurrence of cSDH. However, several studies have reported negative results to this effect. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate antihypertensive drugs, including RAASi, as risk factors for recurrent cSDH. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 203 consecutive cases of surgically treated cSDH were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical and radiological parameters were compared between the groups with and without cSDH recurrence to identify risk factors. RESULTS Of the included cases, 68 (33.5%) used RAASi and 37 (18.2%) developed recurrence within 60 days of surgery. In the multiple logistic regression analysis adjusted by composite risk score, the odds ratios (95% confidence interval) of RAASi, calcium channel blockers, diuretics, β and α blockers, for the recurrent risk of cSDH after surgery were 2.49 (1.16, 5.42), 1.79 (0.84, 3.82), 1.83 (0.62, 4.87), 0.90 (0.28, 2.44), and 0.96 (0.21, 3.20), respectively. The Cox proportional hazard model also demonstrated that RAASi-use was an independent risk factor for cSDH recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Present series suggests RAASi-use as a risk factor for cSDH recurrence, although the role of RAASi-use in cSDH remains debatable. Further studies for deeper understanding of the microenvironment of hematoma and the surroundings are preferable. (235 words).

Abstract
Background/aim Chronic subdural hematoma is the most frequently operated on intracranial hemorrhage worldwide. Although surgical results are satisfactory, recurrence remains an important problem. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate patients who underwent craniotomy with limited membranectomy (CwLM) in terms of recurrence rate and other complications. Materials and methods Electronic records of 291 consecutive patients who were operated on at our clinic (Atatürk University Yakutiye Research Hospital) between 2015 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Their radiological images at the time of admission, clinical status, any early postoperative complications, and clinical status at the 6-month follow-up were all evaluated. Results According to the results of the study, postoperative mortality and morbidity of patients who underwent CwLM were similar to those with minimally invasive methods, and it reduced recurrence, especially in laminar and separated subtypes. Conclusion It is our belief that CwLM will be an appropriate treatment approach in suitable patients (radiologically detected) in chronic subdural hematoma, where recurrence is an important problem.

Abstract
Chronic subdural hematoma is one of the most common neurosurgical pathologies with over 160,000 cases in the United States and Europe each year. The current standard of care involves surgically evacuating the hematoma through a cranial opening, however, varied patient risk profiles, a significant recurrence rate, and increasing financial burden have sparked innovation in the field. This mini-review provides a brief overview of currently used evacuation techniques, including emerging adjuncts such as endoscopic assistance and middle meningeal artery embolization. This review synthesizes the body of available evidence on efficacy and risk profiles for each critical aspect of surgical technique in cSDH evacuation and provides insight into trends in the field and promising new technologies.

Neurosurg Rev 2023; 46:98. [PMID: 37115314 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-023-02007-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2022] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare neuroendoscopy-assisted burr-hole evacuation with conventional burr-hole evacuation in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH), and to evaluate the curative effect of neuroendoscopy. This study follows PRISMA guidelines and uses the keywords "chronic subdural hematoma," "neuroendoscopies," "neuroendoscopy," "endoscopy," "endoscopic neurosurgery," and "neuroendoscopic surgery" to conduct an electronic search of online databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. There were no restrictions on language or publication year. This meta-analysis involved 948 patients in six studies. The results showed that the recurrence rate in the neuroendoscopy group was significantly lower than that in the conventional burr-hole group (3.1% vs. 13.8%, P<0.001). Compared with the control group, the neuroendoscopy group had a longer operation time (P<0.001) and a shorter postoperative drainage time (P<0.001). In addition, there was no significant difference in hospital stay (P=0.14), mortality (P=0.39), postoperative morbidity (P=0.12), or 6-month neurological outcomes (P=0.32) between the two groups. It should be noted that the comparison of neurological outcomes was based on 269 patients (6/106 vs. 14/163). Compared with conventional burr-hole evacuation, neuroendoscopy-assisted burr-hole evacuation reduces the recurrence rate of CSDH and shortens the postoperative drainage time. However, the neuroendoscopy group did not have lower mortality or morbidity or better functional outcomes. In the future, randomized controlled trials are needed to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of neuroendoscopic surgery.

Abstract
Background: Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a common entity in the elderly. Homogeneous or well-liquefied CSDH has a standard line of treatment through burr hole and irrigation. However, the management of septated chronic subdural hematoma (sCSDH) with multiple membranes does not have a well-defined surgical approach. The neomembranes forming septations prevent evacuation of clots through burr holes, and the small remaining loculi with clots will enlarge overtime to cause recurrence. Methods: Patients with sCSDH were operated through a minicraniotomy (2.5 cm × 2.5 cm) using rigid endoscopes for visualization of the subdural space. Using endoscope, the entire subdural space can be visualized. The neomembranes are removed with standard neurosurgical microinstruments. The entire cavity is irrigated under vision to remove all clots and ensures hemostasis. Results: Eighty-three endoscope-assisted evacuations were done in 68 patients from January 2016 to April 2020. Fifty (73.5%) patients had unilateral and 18 (26.5%) had bilateral subdural. Only 1 patient (1.47%) had a clinically significant recollection of subdural bleeding 1 month after the procedure. Over a mean follow-up period of 25.3 months (range 1–53 months), rest of patients did not show any recollection. Conclusion: Endoscopic evacuation of sCSDH is a safe and effective method and can be used to improve clot evacuation, and remove neomembranes under direct vision to reduce the rates of recollection. This method also obviates the need for larger craniotomies to remove membranes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common neurological disorder with a high recurrence rate. This study investigates the effect that atorvastatin has when used as a postoperative adjuvant therapy on the prevention of CSDH recurrence after YL-1 puncture needle surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis of 516 CSDH patients who underwent YL-1 puncture needle surgery was undertaken. Baseline characteristics including sex, age, history of injury, past medical histories (anticoagulation, liver dysfunction, heart diseases, malignant tumors, diabetes, hemodialysis, and chronic alcoholism), and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnostic indicators (bilateral, mixed density or signal, maximum hematoma width, and brain atrophy) were recorded. Differences in recurrence rates were compared between two groups: one with atorvastatin after surgery and one without. RESULTS 516 patients (429 men and 87 women), aged 14-98 years (mean age, 67.09 ± 11.74 years) were included in the study. YL-1 puncture needle surgery was performed 610 times. 94 patients had bilateral surgery, totaling 184 procedures. 301 patients with 360 procedures were treated with atorvastatin after surgery, of which 25 had recurrent CSDH; recurrence rate: 7.0 % (25/360). 215 patients with 250 procedures had surgery without subsequent atorvastatin, of which 14 had recurrent CSDH; recurrence rate: 5.6 % (14/250). Univariate analysis indicated no statistically significant difference in recurrence rates between groups (P > 0.05). Baseline characteristics of the two groups (age, sex, history of injury, past medical histories, CT or MRI diagnostic indicators) also showed no statistical difference (all P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS YL-1 puncture needle surgery with irrigation and closed-system drainage is an effective surgical treatment for CSDH. Atorvastatin has no statistically significant effect on the prevention of CSDH recurrence after surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The surgical management of trauma-related intracranial hemorrhage is characterized by marked heterogeneity. Large prospective randomized trials have generally been prohibited by the ubiquity of concordant pathology, diversity of trauma systems, and paucity of clinical equipoise among providers. RECENT FINDINGS To date, the results of retrospective studies and surgeon preference have driven the indications, modality, extent, and timing of surgical intervention in the global neurosurgical community. With advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of hemorrhagic TBI and the advent of novel surgical techniques, a reevaluation of surgical indication, timing, and approach is warranted. In this way, we can work to optimize surgical outcomes, achieving maximal functional recovery while minimizing surgical morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of neuroendoscopic surgery for chronic or subacute subdural hematoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between September 2016 and September 2018, neuroendoscopic surgery was performed on 25 patients with chronic and subacute subdural hematoma. Hematoma evacuation was performed with a 0°, 4 mm diameter rigid neuroendoscope via a transcranial neuroendoscopic approach. RESULTS All patients successfully underwent neuroendoscopic surgery, and no surgical complications or rebleeding was observed. Postoperative computed tomography scans showed that the hematoma was successfully evacuated. All patients had recovered well at discharge, the observed 30-day mortality rate was 0%, and no patients suffered recurrence for 2-26 months after surgery. CONCLUSION Neuroendoscopic surgery was a safe and effective approach for the treatment of chronic and subacute subdural hematoma. This approach has the advantages of decent visualization and minimal invasiveness and could reduce recurrence and the mortality rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The high recurrent rate of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) has consistently confused the neurosurgeons, and the role of atorvastatin in the management of CSDH has remained unclear over past decade, and atorvastatin seems to be a safe and cost-effective treatment to CSDH. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a systematic review to discuss the effect of atorvastatin in CSDH. METHOD We searched the PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and the China Biology Medicine disc, up to March 2017, for published studies on the effects of atorvastatin in the management of CSDH, and reviewers performed a brief qualitative descriptive analysis of atorvastatin's efficacy in the management of CSDH. RESULTS Three eligible studies were included in this systematic review. Results indicated that atorvastatin accelerated hematoma absorption, decreased recurrence risk, and surgical requirement. CONCLUSION Limited evidence suggests that oral atorvastatin may be beneficial in the management of CSDH. Further high-quality studies focused on dosage, duration, hematoma size are needed to further elucidate the role of atorvastatin in the management of CSDH.
