The intention of this paper is to find a simple and efficient surgical procedure for CSDH. Methods: A retrospective study of 448 patients with CSDH by surgical treatment during 2005 to 2009 was conducted in order to compare the efficiency between two diferent primary surgical methods, i.e. twist-drill drainage without irrigation in Group A (n-178) and one burr-hole with irrigation in Group B (n=270). The results were statistically analyzed. Results: The reoperation rates in Group A and Group B were 7.9% and 11.9% respectively. The good outcome rate was 88.8% and 73.5%, the complicatiGn was 7.9% and 20.7% in Group A and Group B, respectively. Conclusions: The burr-hole drainage with irrigation of the hematoma cavity is not beneficial to the outcome and prognosis. Irrigation is not important in the surgical treatmerit for CSDH. Thus in initial treatment, twist-drill drainage without irrigation of the hematoma cavity is recommended because it is relatively safe, time-saving and cost-effective.展开更多

Methods: From October 1988 to June 2002 a total of 358 patients with CSDH were treated with trepanation and drainage in our hospital. Among them 15 patients had recurrence of CSDH after operation. The data of the 15 patients were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Of the 15 patients, 13 were cured by retrepanation and redrainage, one cured by removal of hematoma by craniotomy with bone flap, and one, a 1 year old child, gave up reoperation due to severe encephalatrophy. Conclusions: Most CSDHs which recur after trepanation and drainage can be cured by retrepanation and redrainage. For the patients with repeated recurrence of CSDH removal of hematoma capsule can be considered. The causes of recurrence of CSDH are related to disease course, the thickness of hematoma capsule, the severity of encephalatraphy and whether the hematoma cavity is drained or irrigated completely, and operation methods.展开更多
