Burr Hole Washout versus Craniotomy for Chronic Subdural Hematoma: Patient Outcome and Cost Analysis
Chronic subdural hematomas (CSDH), which are frequently encountered in neurosurgical practice, are, in the majority of cases, ideally treated with surgical drainage. Despite this common practice, there is still controversy surrounding the best surgical procedure. With lack of clear evidence of a superior technique, surgeons are free to base the decision on other factors that are not related to ...
متن کاملSurgical Exposure Gained in an Extended Retrosigmoid Approach to the Cerebellopontine Angle Compared to the Traditional Retrosigmoid Approach.
AIM Retrosigmoid approach to the posterior fossa has been a popular and dependable approach for accessing the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) and petroclival region. Although this approach is commonly used, it requires cerebellar retraction and has limitations when the lesion is located ventral to the brainstem. The aim was to quantify the angle of view provided by extended retrosigmoid approach i...
متن کاملUsefulness of ultrasonography with a burr-hole transducer during surgery through a burr hole.
Ultrasonography has become a common method for evaluation of the central nervous system. We present our experience with ultrasonography monitoring with a burr-hole transducer for investigation of intracranial lesions. Common indications for this technique included guidance for placement of catheters, localization of masses, aspiration of cystic lesion, and confirmation of removal. Postoperative...
متن کاملUnderlay hourglass-shaped autologous pericranium duraplasty in "key-hole" retrosigmoid approach surgery: Technical report.
BACKGROUND Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakages represent a major complication of skull base surgery. Watertight dural suture is challenging, and different ways to reinforce it have been proposed. Since 6 months, we use locally harvested autologous pericranium graft for dural repair in retrosigmoid approach. METHODS Retrospectively, we analyzed 27 patients operated on with key-hole retrosigmoid...
متن کاملPercutaneous epidural drainage through a burr hole
Intracranial extradural collection may cause an increase in intracranial pressure, requiring rapid emergency treatment to reduce morbidity and mortality. We described an alternative CT-guided percutaneous access for extradural collection drainage. We report a case of a patient with previous craniectomy for meningioma ressection who presented to the Emergency Department with symptoms of intracra...
