Symptomatic Epidural Fluid Collection Following Cranioplasty after Decompressive Craniectomy for Traumatic Brain Injury
OBJECTIVE Symptomatic epidural fluid collection (EFC) arising as a complication of cranioplasty is underestimated and poorly described. The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for development of symptomatic EFC after cranioplasty following traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHODS From January 2010 to December 2014, 82 cranioplasties following decompressive hemicraniectomy f...
متن کاملDecompressive craniectomy following traumatic brain injury: developing the evidence base.
In the context of traumatic brain injury (TBI), decompressive craniectomy (DC) is used as part of tiered therapeutic protocols for patients with intracranial hypertension (secondary or protocol-driven DC). In addition, the bone flap can be left out when evacuating a mass lesion, usually an acute subdural haematoma (ASDH), in the acute phase (primary DC). Even though, the principle of "opening t...
متن کاملDecompressive craniectomy in diffuse traumatic brain injury.
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether decompressive craniectomy improves the functional outcome in patients with severe traumatic brain injury and refractory raised intracranial pressure. METHODS From December 2002 through April 2010, we randomly assigned 155 adults with severe diffuse traumatic brain injury and intracranial hypertension that was refractory to first-tier therapies to undergo eithe...

the patient with head trauma is a challenge for the emergency physician and for the neurosurgeon. currently traumatic brain injury constitutes a public health problem. knowledge of the various supportive therapeutic strategies in the pre-hospital and pre-operative stages is essential for optimal care. the immediate rapid infusion of large volumes of crystalloids to restore blood volume and bloo...
متن کاملCraniectomy With Hemorrhage Evacuation May Have Role in TBI Preemptive Craniectomy With Craniotomy: What Role in the Management of Severe Traumatic Brain Injury?
Background: Craniectomy in severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) may be performed to manage intractable elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) or to avoid postoperative development of elevated ICP following craniotomy for a hemorrhagic mass lesion. Objective: To clarify the role of craniectomy performed during removal of hemorrhagic mass lesions in TBI. Design: Single-institution retrospective medi...
