Abstract:
:Acute traumatic intraparenchymal hematoma (tICH) expansion is a devastating neurological complication that is associated with poor outcome after cerebral contusion. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel noncontrast computed tomography (CT) (NCCT) multihematoma fuzzy sign to predict acute tICH expansion. In this multicenter, prospective cohort study, multihematoma fuzzy signs on baseline CT were found in 212 (43.89%) of total 482 patients. Patients with the multihematoma fuzzy sign had a higher frequency of tICH expansion than those without (90.79% (138) vs. 46.71% (71)). The presence of multihematoma fuzzy sign was associated with increased risk for acute tICH expansion in entire cohort (odds ratio [OR]: 16.15; 95% confidence interval (CI) 8.85-29.47; P < 0.001) and in the cohort after propensity-score matching (OR: 9.37; 95% CI 4.52-19.43; P < 0.001). Receiver operating characteristic analysis indicated a better discriminative ability of the presence of multihematoma fuzzy sign for acute tICH expansion (AUC = 0.79; 95% CI 0.76-0.83), as was also observed in an external validation cohort (AUC = 0.76; 95% CI 0.67-0.84). The novel NCCT marker of multihematoma fuzzy sign could be easily identified on baseline CT and is an easy-to-use predictive tool for tICH expansion in the early stage of cerebral contusion.
