Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Bicompartmental Supra plus Infratentorial Extra Dural Hematoma (SIEDH) is an uncommon yet important category of Extradural Hematoma (EDH) straddling the transverse sinus. It requires quick decision making and proper surgical evacuation. METHODS:We did a retrospective chart review of all SIEDH cases from prospectively maintained operative database in our institute between 2011 & 2017. Clinical status at discharge and follow up were used to assess outcome. Ordinal regression analysis was used for analysis of factors predicting the outcome. We also describe the surgical procedure we follow at our high-volume trauma center for this unique entity. RESULTS:We had 61 operated cases of SIEDH in our series. The median age of the cohort was 30 years (IQR: 21.5-42). Road Traffic Accident was the most common mode of injury (67.2 %). Median pre-operative GCS was 12 (IQR: 9-12). The median volume of SIEDH was 50cc (IQR: 40-70). Mass effect on 4thventricle and brainstem was seen in 47 and 34 patients respectively. An associated fracture was seen in 54 patients. Sinus injury related bleed was noted intra-operatively in 57 % (N = 35). Follow up was available for 60 cases with a median of 130 days. On evaluating with ordinal regression analysis, we found that, the GCS at presentation, pupillary asymmetry, volume of SIEDH, infratentorial volume, blood loss and mass effect on 4thventricle were statistically significant factors affecting GCS at discharge. However, the GCS at presentation, infratentorial volume and blood loss were the only factors determining GOS at follow-up. CONCLUSION:SIEDH are uncommon yet important type of injury type which requires prompt attention and appropriate nuanced approach. Large SIEDH are commonly associated with sinus injury, and large volume blood loss may be anticipated. In addition, SIEDH may be associated with other traumatic brain injuries which may require surgical evacuation.
