The FINISH trial by Rahul Raj and colleagues offers key insights into the surgical management of chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) by evaluating the efficacy of irrigation during burr-hole drainage.1 ...

In the recent editorial on middle meningeal artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma,1 Levitt et al assert that the three recently published randomized trials of middle meningeal artery ...

Recent randomized control trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) as an adjunct to conventional management for patients with nonacute subdural ...

A dent in the head often looks like a depression or irregular spot in your skull. It doesn't always cause symptoms and may develop over time; for example, cranial sutures (seams) that close up the ...

The most common injury is a subdural hematoma; however epidural hematoma, subarachnoid bleeding and shearing injuries of the brain parenchyma can all occur. During the shaking episode, rotational ...

Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the preliminary experience of a combined middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) and burr hole evacuation approach for chronic subdural hematoma ...

from subdural accumulation of blood and subsequent compression of the brain. The bleeding originates from the bridging veins of the meninges, and since the bleed is under venous pressure (unlike the ...

Therefore, another model was trained only using independent variables that can be easily identified or approximated at admission: presence of epidural hematoma, presence of subdural hematoma, presence ...

The SD continuum was then further investigated by comparing subdural platinum/iridium and epidural titanium peg electrodes in patients. In seven patients with either aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage ...
