Abstract:
:Burr-hole craniostomy (BHC) is a widely accepted treatment for chronic subdural hematomas (CSDHs). This study adopted siphon irrigation to evacuate CSDHs and investigated its efficacy and safety as compared with the traditional irrigation used in BHC.A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a center between January 2017 and December 2018. The data of 171 patients who underwent burr-hole craniostomy for CSDH were collected and analyzed. A total of 68 patients underwent siphon irrigation (siphon group) and 103 patients were treated by a traditional method (control group). A follow-up was conducted 6 months after the surgery.No significant difference was observed in the baseline characteristics and preoperative computed tomography (CT) features of the 2 groups (P > .05). The postoperative CT features of the siphon group, which included the volume of hematoma evacuation (P = .034), hematoma evacuation rate (P < .001), recovery rate of the midline shift (P = .017), and occurrence of pneumocephalus (P = .037) were significantly different and better than those of the control group. The length of hospital stay after surgery of the siphon group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P = .015). The Markwalder score of the siphon group was significantly superior to that of the control group on postoperative day 1 (P = .006). Although the recurrence rate in the siphon group (2/68, 2.5%) was lower than that in the control group (11/103, 8.9%), no statistically significant difference was observed between them (P = .069). Moreover, no significant differences were observed in terms of complications and mortality rate between the 2 groups.There was no significant difference in the recurrence rate between the groups that underwent siphon irrigation and traditional irrigation. However, in comparison, siphon irrigation can better improve postoperative CT features, promote early recovery of neurological dysfunction after surgery, and shorten the length of hospital stay. This indicates that siphon irrigation may be a better therapeutic option in BHC for CSDH.
