Factors in the natural history of chronic subdural hematomas that influence their postoperative recurrence.
OBJECT Factors affecting the postoperative recurrence of chronic subdural hematomas (CSDHs) have not been sufficiently investigated. The authors have attempted to determine features of CSDHs that are associated with a high or low recurrence rate on the basis of the natural history of these lesions and their intracranial extension. METHODS One hundred six patients (82 men and 24 women) harbori...
متن کاملChronic Subdural Hematomas Associated with Arachnoid Cysts: Significance in Young Patients with Chronic Subdural Hematomas
Although arachnoid cysts (ACs) are associated with chronic subdural hematomas (CSDHs), especially in young patients, the detailed features of CSDHs associated with ACs remain poorly understood. The objective of this study was to clarify the relationship between the location of CSDHs and ACs and the significance of ACs in young patients with CSDHs. We retrospectively assessed 605 consecutive pat...
متن کاملEnhanced acetylcholinesterase in chronic subdural hematomas.
Hematomas and specimens were studied from 13 surgically-operated chronic subdural hematoma cases. Evacuated hematomas contained elevated potassium ions and slightly increased levels of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and the dural specimens including hematoma capsules stained positive for AChE using histochemical methods, especially in the inner membrane of the dura where the Masson Trichrome stai...
متن کاملFactors Affecting Postoperative Recurrence of Chronic Subdural Hematoma
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a relatively common disease, especially in the geriatric population, frequently encountered in neurosurgical practice. Formation of the outer membrane with an interior containing hyperosmolar blood collection causes development of CSDH, and the outer membrane has abnormally permeable microcapillaries leading to accumulation of exudation from the macrocapillar...
متن کاملInterhemispheric Acute Subdural Hematomas
Dear Editor, Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) is a neurosurgical emergency. Interhemispheric acute subdural hematomas have been reported infrequently in the past. They are usually considered to be a distinct entity because of their unusual location and the fact that their management is still a matter of debate. The most common sites for ASDH are the fronto-parietal convexities and the middle cran...
