Its prognosis is still grave despite the improvements in treatment modalities. Its mortality rate was reported to be around 60% until the 1990s. In the last decade, ASDH mortality rate was reduced to the level of 20% - 40%. Standard treatment to decrease intracranial tension via hematoma evacuation is associated with decompressive craniotomy and followed by ICU management. Objective: To evaluate the outcome and prognostic factors in patients of acute subdural hematoma treated by surgical evacuation and decompressive craniotomy. Also, outcome of cranioplasty by repositioning of patients own bone or by synthetic mesh methods is evaluated. Patients and Methods: It is one year retrospective study. It was conducted on 53 patients, in trauma unit, Assiut university hospitals. We report time lag between trauma and performed surgery, initial Glasgow coma scale (GCS), age, sex and presence of other intracranial pathologies. Outcome assessment is based on Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) and fol-low-up extended for 6 months. We include those patients with only (isolated) head trauma, shift of midline more than 5 mm in CT brain. We excluded pa-tients with GCS 3 and fixed dilated pupils as well as patients with GCS higher than 12. We did decompressive craniotomy and duraplasty in all patients. Bone flap of decompressive craniotomy is situated in the abdomen. All func-tionally recovered patients were submitted for cranioplasty with either re-placing patient own bone or by Titanium mesh. Results: We had 39 males and 14 females. Age ranged between 7 and 65 years old. 23 deaths, 10 persis-tent vegetative state, 10 severe disability, 8 moderate disability and 2 good recovery. The outcome analysis was based on 6 month follow-up. Conclu-sion: Acute subdural hematoma is a very serious condition. Mortality and morbidity is intimately related to GCS on admission. Presence of associated cerebral pathology increases mortality and morbidity of patients with post-traumatic acute subdural hematoma. Early evacuation of posttraumatic acute subdural hematoma with decompressive craniotomy is an important method to control raised intracranial tension, reduce shift of midline and very benefi-cial in decreasing mortality and morbidity. Regarding infection and avoiding bone flap resorption, Titanium mesh is better than patient own bone during cranioplasty after patient recovery.展开更多

Dural opening is often associated with brain herniation against the dural edges due to associated edema that would lead to venous infarction. Aim: The objective of this study is to describe a technical note that would allow fast and effective closure of the dura after hematoma evacuation via duraplasty with analysis of the safety and competency of the technique. Subjects and Methods: The fast-track technique was implemented in 15 successive cases with acute subdural hematoma where the fascia lata flap was prepared and sutured to the planned dural incision before opening the dura, which allowed fast and effective closure of the dura before brain herniation. Subdural bridges were planned by using Gelfoam to prevent venous compression. Analysis of the technique effectiveness was performed by the operative detection of brain herniation, as well as clinical and radiological follow-up of patients. Results: All patients had a Glasgow coma score (GCS) below six before the operation. Mean time from trauma to surgery was five hours. The dura could be effectively closed with no brain herniation in all cases. Nine patients survived (60%), where five of them ended up in a vegetative state. Of these two recovered and three continued in a persistent vegetative state. The mortality rate was 40%. Post-operative infarction was detected in post-operative imaging of four patients. Conclusion: The fast-track duraplasty technique is fast and effective in prevention of brain herniation during surgery with favorable clinical outcome in comparison with the poor and severely deteriorated preoperative clinical presentation. More studies to evaluate the impact of the technique on the survival rate are warranted.展开更多
