World Neurosurg 2024; 187:e585-e597. [PMID: 38679374 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2024.04.132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Debate persists over the relative merits of neuroendoscopic surgery (NS) compared to stereotactic aspiration (SA) for treating supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Consequently, we undertook this meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of NS versus SA. METHODS We searched for the all-relevant studies systematically from English databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. Three independent researchers identified and selected these literatures that met the inclusion criteria. Then we evaluated the quality of these studies according to the Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. RevMan 5.4 statistical software was used to conduct this meta-analysis. RESULTS Sixteen studies, including 2722 supratentorial ICH patients, were included in our meta-analysis. The pooled results showed that NS could effectively improve the functional prognosis (P = 0.002), reduce the postoperative mortality (P < 0.00001), and increase the hematoma evacuation rate (P < 0.00001). In addition, SA had more advantages in shortening operation time (P < 0.00001) and reducing intraoperative blood loss (P < 0.0001). However, there was no obvious statistical difference in intensive care unit stays (P = 0.23) between NS and SA. Besides, no sufficient evidence could support a significant difference in hospital stays. In the aspect of complications, NS was discovered to have a positive effect on preventing rebleeding (P = 0.005) and intracranial infection (P = 0.003). However, no significant differences between the 2 groups in digestive tract ulcer (P = 0.34), epilepsy (P = 0.99), and pneumonia (P = 0.58) were discovered. In the subgroup analysis, factors including publication time, Glasgow Coma Scale score, age, and follow-up, all significantly influenced the good functional outcome and mortality. Meanwhile, NS behaved more advantageous in improving functional prognosis for patients with hematoma located in the basal ganglia. CONCLUSIONS NS may hold more advantages over SA in the treatment of supratentorial ICH. However, SA is also an effective and suitable alternative for elderly patients, especially those with multiple comorbidities intolerant to extended surgical procedures. Further high-quality studies are warranted to substantiate our findings in the future.

Application of Robotic Stereotactic Assistance (ROSA) for spontaneous intracerebral hematoma aspiration and thrombolytic catheter placement. J Formos Med Assoc 2024:S0929-6646(24)00254-7. [PMID: 38866694 DOI: 10.1016/j.jfma.2024.05.018] [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: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for up to 20% of all strokes and results in 40% mortality at 30 days. Although conservative medical management is still the standard treatment for ICH patients with small hematoma, patients with residual hematoma ≤15 mL after surgery are associated with better functional outcomes and survival rates. This study reported our clinical experience with using Robotic Stereotactic Assistance (ROSA) as a safe and effective approach for stereotactic ICH aspiration and intra-clot catheter placement. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted of patients with spontaneous ICH who underwent ROSA-guided ICH aspiration surgery. ROSA-guided ICH surgical techniques, an aspiration and intra-clot catheter placement protocol, and a specific operative workflow (pre-operative protocol, intraoperative procedure and postoperative management) were employed to aspirate ICH using the ROSA One Brain, and appropriate follow-up care was provided. RESULTS From September 14, 2021 to May 4, 2022, a total of 7 patients were included in the study. Based on our workflow design, ROSA-guided stereotactic ICH aspiration effectively aspirated more than 50% of hematoma volume (or more than 30 mL for massive hematomas), thereby reducing the residual hematoma to less than 15 mL. The mean operative time of entire surgical procedure was 1.3 ± 0.3 h, with very little perioperative blood loss and no perioperative complications. No patients required catheter replacement and all patients' functional status improved. CONCLUSIONS Within our clinical practice ROSA-guided ICH aspiration, using our established protocol and workflow, was safe and effective for reducing hematoma volume, with positive functional outcomes.

Abstract
Of the 750,000 strokes in the United States every year, 15% patients suffer from hemorrhagic stroke. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a subtype of hemorrhagic stroke. Despite advances in acute management, patients with hemorrhagic stroke continue to suffer from high mortality and survivors suffer from multidomain impairments in the physical, cognitive, and mental health domains which could last for months to years from their index stroke. Long-term prognosis after ICH is critically dependent on the quality and efficacy of care a patient receives during the acute phase of care. With ongoing care consolidation in stroke systems of care, the number of ICH patients who need to undergo interhospital transfers (IHTs) is increasing. However, the associations between IHT and ICH outcomes have not been well described in literature. In this review, we describe the epidemiology of IHT for ICH, the relationship between IHT and ICH patient outcomes, and proposed improvements to the IHT process to ensure better long-term patient outcomes. Our review indicates that evidence regarding the safety and benefit of IHT for ICH patients is conflicting, with some studies reporting poorer outcomes for transferred patients compared to direct admissions via emergency rooms and other studies showing no effect on outcomes. The American Heart Association guidelines for ICH provide recommendations for timely blood pressure control and anticoagulation reversal to improve patient outcomes. The American Heart Association stroke systems of care guidelines provide recommendations for transfer agreements and but do not provide details on how patients should be managed while undergoing IHT. Large, prospective, and multicenter studies comparing outcomes of IHT patients to direct admissions are necessary to provide more definitive guidance to optimize IHT protocols and aid clinical decision-making.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a potentially devastating cerebrovascular disorder. Several randomized trials have assessed interventions to improve ICH outcomes. This article summarizes some of the recent developments in the emergent medical and surgical management of acute ICH. LATEST DEVELOPMENTS Recent data have underscored the protracted course of recovery after ICH, particularly in patients with severe disability, cautioning against early nihilism and withholding of life-sustaining treatments. The treatment of ICH has undergone rapid evolution with the implementation of intensive blood pressure control, novel reversal strategies for coagulopathy, innovations in systems of care such as mobile stroke units for hyperacute ICH care, and the emergence of newer minimally invasive surgical approaches such as the endoport and endoscope-assisted evacuation techniques. ESSENTIAL POINTS This review discusses the current state of evidence in ICH and its implications for practice, using case illustrations to highlight some of the nuances involved in the management of acute ICH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Ultrasound guidance endoscopic surgery (ES) has been widely used in the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage in recent years, but relevant research articles are still scarce. Our study aims to investigate the effect of ES compared with conventional craniotomy (CC) on the postoperative complications, and prognosis of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clinical data of 1201 patients with ICH treated in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2020 were collected. The t-test, Chi-squared test and Fisher's exact test were used to analyze the clinical baseline data. Among 1021 spontaneous ICH patients, 193 patients who underwent hematoma evacuation were included in the present analysis. RESULTS The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score at 6 months had a favorable prognosis in ES group (p = 0.003). ES group had fewer postoperative complications compared with CC group. Operating time and intraoperative blood loss were significantly lower in ES group than CC group (p = 0.001 and p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed that receiving ES improved the prognosis of ICH patients. Additionally, endoscopic surgery diminishes operative time, and intraoperative blood loss and reduces the incidence of postoperative complications.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage is the most serious type of stroke, leading to high rates of severe disability and mortality. Hematoma expansion is an independent predictor of poor functional outcome and is a compelling target for intervention. For decades, randomized trials aimed at decreasing hematoma expansion through single interventions have failed to meet their primary outcomes of statistically significant improvement in neurological outcomes. A wide range of evidence suggests that ultra-early bundled care, with multiple simultaneous interventions in the acute phase, offers the best hope of limiting hematoma expansion and improving functional recovery. Patients with intracerebral hemorrhage who fail to receive early aggressive care have worse outcomes, suggesting that an important treatment opportunity exists. This consensus statement puts forth a call to action to establish a protocol for Code ICH, similar to current strategies used for the management of acute ischemic stroke, through which early intervention, bundled care, and time-based metrics have substantially improved neurological outcomes. Based on current evidence, we advocate for the widespread adoption of an early bundle of care for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage focused on time-based metrics for blood pressure control and emergency reversal of anticoagulation, with the goal of optimizing the benefit of these already widely used interventions. We hope Code ICH will endure as a structural platform for continued innovation, standardization of best practices, and ongoing quality improvement for years to come.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive evacuation may help ameliorate outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). However, hospital length of stay (LOS) post-evacuation is often long and costly. OBJECTIVE To examine factors associated with LOS in a large cohort of patients who underwent minimally invasive endoscopic evacuation. METHODS Patients presenting to a large health system with spontaneous supratentorial ICH qualified for minimally invasive endoscopic evacuation if they met the following inclusion criteria: age ≥18, premorbid modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≤3, hematoma volume ≥15 mL, and presenting National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≥6. Demographic, clinical, radiographic, and operative characteristics were included in a multivariate logistic regression for hospital and ICU LOS dichotomized into short and prolonged stay at 14 and 7 days, respectively. RESULTS Among 226 patients who underwent minimally invasive endoscopic evacuation, the median intensive care unit and hospital LOS were 8 (4-15) days and 16 (9-27) days, respectively. A greater extent of functional impairment on presentation (OR per NIHSS point 1.10 (95% CI 1.04 to 1.17), P=0.007), concurrent intraventricular hemorrhage (OR=2.46 (1.25 to 4.86), P=0.02), and deep origin (OR=per point 2.42 (1.21 to 4.83), P=0.01) were associated with prolonged hospital LOS. A longer delay from ictus to evacuation (OR per hour 1.02 (1.01 to 1.04), P=0.007) and longer procedure time (OR per hour 1.91 (1.26 to 2.89), P=0.002) were associated with prolonged ICU LOS. Prolonged hospital and ICU LOS were in turn longitudinally associated with a lower rate of discharge to acute rehabilitation (40% vs 70%, P<0.0001) and worse 6-month mRS outcomes (5 (4-6) vs 3 (2-4), P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS We present factors associated with prolonged LOS, which in turn was associated with poor long-term outcomes. Factors associated with LOS may help to inform patient and clinician expectations of recovery, guide protocols for clinical trials, and select suitable populations for minimally invasive endoscopic evacuation.

Abstract
Supratentorial spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) can be treated with endoscopic surgery, but the optimal timing remains uncertain. We retrospectively analyzed data from 46 patients who underwent endoscopic surgery for supratentorial SICH. We examined the relationship between time to evacuation and functional outcome at 3 months, adjusting for prognostic factors. Surgical outcomes and complications were compared between patients with early (≤ 12 h) or late (> 12 h) evacuation. Median time to evacuation was 12 h, and the rate of unfavorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale > 3 at 3 months) was 32.6%. Longer time to evacuation was independently associated with unfavorable outcome (odds ratio per hour delay: 1.26). Late evacuation carried a 7.25-fold higher risk of unfavorable outcome compared to early evacuation. This association held across subgroups based on hematoma volume, location, and intraventricular extension (P for interaction > 0.05). Patients with late evacuation had fewer spot signs (24% vs. 4.8%, P = 0.035) and markers of hemorrhagic expansion (36% vs. 9.5%, P = 0.018), longer neurosurgical intensive care unit (NSICU) stay (3.2 vs. 1.9 days, P = 0.011) and hospital stay (15.7 vs. 11.9 days, P = 0.014), and higher 30-day mortality (28.6 vs. 4%, P = 0.036) and complication rates (57.1% vs. 28.0%, P = 0.023). This study suggests a potential association between early endoscopic evacuation of supratentorial SICH and improved functional outcomes, lower 30-day mortality and reduced complications. The need for timely intervention in managing supratentorial SICH is highlighted, yet further validation through multi-center prospective studies is essential to substantiate these findings and provide a higher level of evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Prognosticators of good functional outcome after minimally invasive surgical (MIS) intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) evacuation are poorly defined. This study aims to investigate clinical and radiographic prognosticators of poor functional outcome after MIS evacuation of ICH with tubular retractor systems. METHODS Single-center retrospective review of adult (age ≥18 years) patients who underwent surgical evacuation of a spontaneous supratentorial ICH evacuation using tubular retractors from 2013 to 2022 was performed. Clinical and radiographic factors, such as antiplatelet/anticoagulant use, initial NIH Stroke Scale, ICH score, premorbid modified Rankin Scale (mRS), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) severity according to the modified Graeb scale, and preoperative/postoperative ICH volume, were collected. The main outcome was poor functional outcome, defined as mRS score of 4-6 within 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS Eighty-eight patients were included. Clinical follow-up data were available for 64 (73%) patients. Of those, 43 (67%) had a poor functional outcome. On multivariate Cox regression, postoperative ICH volume ≥15 mL (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.46 [95% CI: 1.25-4.87]; P = .010) and higher modified Graeb score (HR = 1.04 [95% CI: 1-1.1]; P = .035] significantly increased the risk of poor functional outcome. Elevated postoperative ICH volume was predicted by the presence of lobar ICH (vs nonlobar, OR = 3.32 [95% CI: 1.01-11.55]; P = .043) and higher preoperative ICH volume (OR = 1.05 [1.02-1.08]; P < .001). A minimum of 60% ICH evacuation yielded an improvement in mRS 4-6 rates (HR 0.3 [95% CI: 0.1-0.8], P = .013). In patients without IVH and with a >80% ICH evacuation, the rate of mRS 4-6 was 42% compared with 67% in the whole patient sample ( P = .017). CONCLUSION Increased IVH volumes and residual postoperative ICH volumes are associated with poor functional outcome after MIS ICH evacuation. Postoperative ICH volume was associated with lobar ICH location as well as preoperative ICH volume. These factors may help to prognosticate patient outcomes and improve selection criteria for MIS ICH evacuation techniques.

Initial experience with minimally invasive endoscopic evacuation of intracerebral hemorrhage in the setting of radiographic herniation. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2023; 32:107309. [PMID: 37625345 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2023.107309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) can rapidly result in cerebral herniation, leading to poor neurologic outcomes or mortality. To date, neither decompressive hemicraniectomy (DH) nor hematoma evacuation have been conclusively shown to improve outcomes for comatose ICH patients presenting with cerebral herniation, with these patients largely excluded from clinical trials. Here we present the outcomes of a series of patients presenting with ICH and radiographic herniation who underwent emergent minimally invasive (MIS) ICH evacuation. METHODS We reviewed our prospectively collected registry of patients undergoing MIS ICH evacuation at a single institution from 01/01/2017 to 10/01/2021. We selected all consecutive patients with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) ≤ 8 and radiographic herniation for this case series. Clinical and radiographic variables were collected, including admission GCS score, preoperative and postoperative hematoma volumes, National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) scores, and modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores at last follow-up. RESULTS Of 176 patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH who underwent minimally invasive endoscopic evacuation during the study time period, a total of 9 patients presented with GCS ≤ 8 and evidence of radiographic herniation. Among these patients, the mean age was 62 ± 12 years, the median GCS at presentation was 5 [IQR 4-6], the mean preoperative hematoma volume was 94 ± 44 mL, the mean time from ictus to evacuation was 12 ± 5 h, and the mean postoperative hematoma volume was 11 ± 16 mL, for a median evacuation percentage of 97% [83-99]. Three patients (33%) died, four (44%) survived with mRS 5 and two (22%) with mRS 4. Patients had a median NIHSS improvement of 5 compared to their initial NIHSS. Age was very strongly correlate to improvements in NIHSS (r2 = 0.90). CONCLUSION Data from this initial experience suggest emergent MIS hematoma evacuation in the setting of ICH with radiographic herniation is feasible and technically effective. Further randomized studies are required to determine if such an intervention offers overall benefits to patients and their families.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prognosis following a hemorrhagic stroke is usually extremely poor. Rating scales have been developed to predict the outcomes of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). To date, however, the prognostic prediction models have not included the full range of relevant imaging features. We constructed a clinic-imaging fusion model based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) to predict the short-term prognosis of ICH patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a multi-center retrospective study, which included 1990 patients with ICH. Two CNN-based deep learning models were constructed to predict the neurofunctional outcomes at discharge; these were validated using a nested 5-fold cross-validation approach. The models' predictive efficiency was compared with the original ICH scale and the ICH grading scale. Poor neurological outcome was defined as a Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score of 1-3. RESULTS The training and test sets included 1599 and 391 patients, respectively. For the test set, the clinic-imaging fusion model had the highest area under the curve (AUC = 0.903), followed by the imaging-based model (AUC = 0.886), the ICH scale (AUC = 0.777), and finally the ICH grading scale (AUC = 0.747). CONCLUSION The CNN prognostic prediction model based on neuroimaging features was more effective than the ICH scales in predicting the neurological outcomes of ICH patients at discharge. The CNN model's predictive efficiency slightly improved when clinical data were included.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous randomised controlled trials could not demonstrate that surgical evacuation of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) improves functional outcome. Increasing evidence suggests that minimally invasive surgery may be beneficial, in particular when performed early after symptom onset. The aim of this study was to investigate safety and technical efficacy of early minimally invasive endoscopy-guided surgery in patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH. METHODS The Dutch Intracerebral Haemorrhage Surgery Trial pilot study was a prospective intervention study with blinded outcome assessment in three neurosurgical centres in the Netherlands. We included adult patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH ≥10mL and National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≥2 for minimally invasive endoscopy-guided surgery within 8 h after symptom onset in addition to medical management. Primary safety outcome was death or increase in NIHSS ≥4 points at 24 h. Secondary safety outcomes were procedure-related serious adverse events (SAEs) within 7 days and death within 30 days. Primary technical efficacy outcome was ICH volume reduction (%) at 24 h. RESULTS We included 40 patients (median age 61 years; IQR 51-67; 28 men). Median baseline NIHSS was 19.5 (IQR 13.3-22.0) and median ICH volume 47.7mL (IQR 29.4-72.0). Six patients had a primary safety outcome, of whom two already deteriorated before surgery and one died within 24 h. Sixteen other SAEs were reported within 7 days in 11 patients (of whom two patients that already had a primary safety outcome), none device related. In total, four (10%) patients died within 30 days. Median ICH volume reduction at 24 h was 78% (IQR 50-89) and median postoperative ICH volume 10.5mL (IQR 5.1-23.8). CONCLUSIONS Minimally invasive endoscopy-guided surgery within 8 h after symptom onset for supratentorial ICH appears to be safe and can effectively reduce ICH volume. Randomised controlled trials are needed to determine whether this intervention also improves functional outcome. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinicaltrials.gov : NCT03608423, August 1st, 2018.

Functional Outcome Analysis of Stereotactic Catheter Aspiration for Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Early or Late Hematoma Evacuation? J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12041533.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive stereotactic catheter aspiration becoming a promising surgical alternative for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients. Our goal is to determine the risk factors that lead to poor functional outcomes in patients undergoing this procedure. METHODS Clinical data of 101 patients with stereotactic catheter ICH aspiration were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate and multiple logistic analyses were used to identify risk factors for poor outcomes 3 months and 1 year after discharge. Univariate analysis was used to compare the functional outcome between early (<48 h after ICH onset) and late hematoma evacuation (≥48 h after ICH onset) groups, as well as for the odd ratios assessment in terms of rebleeding. RESULTS Independent factors for poor 3-month outcome included lobar ICH, ICH score > 2, rebleeding, and delayed hematoma evacuation. Factors for poor 1-year outcome included age > 60, GCS < 13, lobar ICH, and rebleeding. Early hematoma evacuation was linked to a lower likelihood of poor outcome both 3 months and 1 year post-discharge, but with higher risk of postoperative rebleeding. CONCLUSIONS Lobar ICH and rebleeding independently predicted both poor short- and long-term outcomes in patients with stereotactic catheter ICH evacuation. Early hematoma evacuation with preoperative rebleeding risk evaluation may benefit patients with stereotactic catheter ICH evacuation.

Abstract
Introduction Treatment for spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage (SSICH) is limited and consist of either best medical treatment (BMT) or surgical hematoma evacuation. Treatment methods and choice of surgical technique are debated, and so far, no clear advantage of endoscopic surgery (ES) over conventional craniotomy (CC) or BMT was shown. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the differences in outcome, morbidity, and mortality between ES and CC or BMT. Methods We systematically searched Embase and PubMed databases for randomised controlled trials comparing ES to CC or BMT. The primary outcome was favourable functional outcome after 6 months. Secondary outcomes were morbidity and mortality rates and duration of surgery. Results Seven articles were eligible for the outcome analysis with 312 subjects in the control (216 CC, 96 BMT) and 279 in the treatment group (ES). Compared to BMT, ES showed significantly improved favourable functional outcome (RR 1.93 [1.12; 3.33], p = 0.02) and mortality rates (RR 0.63 [0.44; 0.90], p = 0.01). No significant difference in favourable functional outcome and mortality was seen in ES compared to CC (RR 2.13 [0.01; 737], p = 0.35; RR 0.42 [0.17; 1.05], p = 0.06). ES showed significantly lower morbidity (RR 0.41 [0.29; 0.58], p < 0.01), and overall infection rates (RR 0.33 [0.20; 0.54], p < 0.01) compared to CC. Duration of surgery was significantly shorter for ES compared to CC (SMD -3.17 [-4.35; -2.00], p < 0.01). Conclusion ES showed significantly improved favourable functional outcome and mortality rates compared to BMT while showing reduced length of surgery and lower complication rates compared to CC. Therefore, ES appears a promising approach for treatment of SSICH justifying further prospective trials. Systematic review registration PROSPERO, identifier: CRD42020181018.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is one of the most fatal types of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), especially when the third and the fourth ventricles are involved. The use of external ventricular drainage is limited for evacuation of hemorrhage in the lateral ventricles. Endoscopic surgery can provide visualized evacuation of the hemorrhage in the lateral and third ventricles. However, it is usually challenging to access the fourth ventricle using a routine endoscopic approach. METHODS We have reported 3 cases of severe IVH with cast fourth ventricles treated using an endoscopic-assisted trans-lateral ventricular transchoroidal fissure trans-aqueductal approach. RESULTS The average preoperative Graeb score was 11, and the average IVH volume was 75.12 mL. The IVH evacuation rate was 97.5%-100%. The average Glasgow coma scale score had increased to 12 at discharge from 6.6 at admission. At 3 months after surgery, the average modified Rankin scale score was 3. No cerebrospinal fluid shunt had been required and no surgery-related complication had occurred in any patient. CONCLUSIONS Our results have shown that the endoscopic-assisted trans-lateral ventricular transchoroidal fissure trans-aqueductal approach is a feasible and safe endoscopic option that can achieve one-off complete removal of clots in all 4 ventricles in patients with severe IVH.

Consensus recommendations on therapeutic hypothermia after minimally invasive intracerebral hemorrhage evacuation from the hypothermia for intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) working group. Front Neurol 2022; 13:859894. [PMID: 36062017 PMCID: PMC9428129 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.859894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and purpose Therapeutic hypothermia (TH), or targeted temperature management (TTM), is a classic treatment option for reducing inflammation and potentially other destructive processes across a wide range of pathologies, and has been successfully used in numerous disease states. The ability for TH to improve neurological outcomes seems promising for inflammatory injuries but has yet to demonstrate clinical benefit in the intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patient population. Minimally invasive ICH evacuation also presents a promising option for ICH treatment with strong preclinical data but has yet to demonstrate functional improvement in large randomized trials. The biochemical mechanisms of action of ICH evacuation and TH appear to be synergistic, and thus combining hematoma evacuation with cooling therapy could provide synergistic benefits. The purpose of this working group was to develop consensus recommendations on optimal clinical trial design and outcomes for the use of therapeutic hypothermia in ICH in conjunction with minimally invasive ICH evacuation. Methods An international panel of experts on the intersection of critical-care TH and ICH was convened to analyze available evidence and form a consensus on critical elements of a focal cooling protocol and clinical trial design. Three focused sessions and three full-group meetings were held virtually from December 2020 to February 2021. Each meeting focused on a specific subtopic, allowing for guided, open discussion. Results These recommendations detail key elements of a clinical cooling protocol and an outline for the roll-out of clinical trials to test and validate the use of TH in conjunction with hematoma evacuation as well as late-stage protocols to improve the cooling approach. The combined use of systemic normothermia and localized moderate (33.5°C) hypothermia was identified as the most promising treatment strategy. Conclusions These recommendations provide a general outline for the use of TH after minimally invasive ICH evacuation. More research is needed to further refine the use and combination of these promising treatment paradigms for this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraventricular hemorrhage is a neurosurgical emergency, and a dangerous condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. Previously, hematoma evacuation is generally executed by external intracranial drainage (EVD) or surgical evacuation. Nowadays, endoscopic evacuation is emerging as a good alternative because it brings relatively less invasion and injury. However, successful endoscopic evacuation requires skilled manipulation of endoscopic devices and the evidence supporting its efficacy differs in different reports.
AIM To improve the technique usage and provide more evidence of endoscopic evacuation efficacy, we summarize our surgical experience and compared the outcomes of the endoscopic evacuation with EVD using real-world data.
METHODS We retrospectively studied 96 consecutive patients with intraventricular hemorrhage who underwent either endoscopic surgery (n = 43) or non-endoscopic surgery (n = 53) for hemorrhage evacuation between November 2013 and September 2019 in our center. Patients’ conditions prior to and after the operation were evaluated and analyzed to assess the efficacy of the operation. The consciousness status improvement and perioperative in-hospital parameters in the two types of operation groups were assessed and compared.
RESULTS Patients in the endoscopic and non-endoscopic groups presented with a similar state of consciousness, with a comparable Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) index. The average operation time of the endoscopic group was longer than that of the non-endoscopic group (median 2.42 h vs 1.08 h, P < 0.001). Although the endoscopic group was older and had a baseline Graeb score that indicated more severe hemorrhage than the non-endoscopic group (Graeb median: Endoscopic group = 9 vs non-endoscopic group = 8, P = 0.023), the clearance rate of hematoma was as high as 60.5%. Both the endoscopic and non-endoscopic groups showed an improved GCS index after surgery. However, this improvement was more marked in patients in the endoscopic group (median improvement of GCS index: Endoscope group = 4 vs non-endoscopic group = 1, P < 0.001). Additionally, the endoscopic group had a lower Graeb score than the non-endoscopic group after the operation. The intensive care unit stay of the endoscopic group was significantly shorter than that of the non-endoscopic group (median: endoscopic group = 6 d vs non-endoscope group = 7 d, P = 0.017).
CONCLUSION Endoscopic evacuation of intraventricular hemorrhage was generally an effective and efficient way for hemorrhage evacuation, and contributed remarkably to the improvement of consciousness in patients with intraventricular hemorrhage.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating form of stroke with high morbidity and mortality. This review article focuses on the epidemiology, cause, mechanisms of injury, current treatment strategies, and future research directions of ICH. Incidence of hemorrhagic stroke has increased worldwide over the past 40 years, with shifts in the cause over time as hypertension management has improved and anticoagulant use has increased. Preclinical and clinical trials have elucidated the underlying ICH cause and mechanisms of injury from ICH including the complex interaction between edema, inflammation, iron-induced injury, and oxidative stress. Several trials have investigated optimal medical and surgical management of ICH without clear improvement in survival and functional outcomes. Ongoing research into novel approaches for ICH management provide hope for reducing the devastating effect of this disease in the future. Areas of promise in ICH therapy include prognostic biomarkers and primary prevention based on disease pathobiology, ultra-early hemostatic therapy, minimally invasive surgery, and perihematomal protection against inflammatory brain injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), it is unclear whether early neurological deterioration, hematoma expansion (HE), and outcome vary by supratentorial ICH location (deep versus lobar). Herein, we assessed these relationships in a clinical trial cohort that underwent brain imaging early after symptom onset. We hypothesized that HE would occur more frequently, and outcome would be worse in patients with deep ICH. METHODS We performed a post hoc analysis of the FAST (Factor-VII-for-Acute-Hemorrhagic-Stroke-Treatment) trial including all patients with supratentorial hemorrhage. Enrolled patients underwent brain imaging within 3 hours of symptom onset and 24 hours after randomization. Multivariable regression was used to test the association between ICH location and 3 outcomes: HE (increase of ≥33% or 6mL), early neurological deterioration (decrease in Glasgow Coma Scale score ≥2 points or increase in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale ≥4 points within 24 hours of admission), and 90-day outcome (modified Rankin Scale). RESULTS Of 841 FAST trial patients, we included 728 (mean age 64 years, 38% women) with supratentorial hemorrhages (deep n=623, lobar n=105). HE (44 versus 27%, P=0.001) and early neurological deterioration (31 versus 17%, P=0.001) were more common in lobar hemorrhages. Deep hemorrhages were smaller than lobar hemorrhages at baseline (12 versus 35mL, P<0.001) and 24 hours (14 versus 38mL, P<0.001). Unadjusted 90-day outcome was worse in lobar compared with deep ICH (median modified Rankin Scale score 5 versus 4, P=0.03). However, when adjusting for variables included in the ICH score including ICH volume, deep location was associated with worse and lobar location with better outcome (odds ratio lobar location, 0.58 [95% CI, 0.38-0.89]; P=0.01). CONCLUSIONS In this secondary analysis of randomized trial patients, lobar ICH location was associated with larger ICH volume, more HE and early neurological deterioration, and worse outcome than deep ICH. After adjustment for prognostic variables, however, deep ICH was associated with worse outcome, likely due to their proximity to eloquent brain structures.
