Comparison of therapeutic effects of endoscopic assisted different surgical approaches in hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage: A retrospective cohort study

Abstract

We aimed to explore the therapeutic effects of endoscopically assisted surgical approaches for HICH. In this retrospective cohort study, we retrospectively analyzed the treatment status of 118 patients with HICH who underwent surgery for hematoma removal. Among them, 61 patients underwent endoscopically assisted hematoma removal surgery through the frontal lobe approach (frontal lobe group); 57 patients underwent endoscopic hematoma assisted via the temporal lobe approach (temporal lobe group). Treatment effects, cerebral hemodynamic status before and after treatment, postoperative prognosis at one month, and incidence of complications were compared between the 2 groups. We found that the total effective treatment rate in the frontal lobe group was higher than that in the temporal lobe group (P < .05). After surgery, the R during the contraction period of the common cerebral artery in both groups decreased compared to that before surgery, and the frontal lobe group was significantly lower than the temporal lobe group; the V and Q were higher than those before surgery, and the frontal lobe group was significantly higher than the temporal lobe group (P < .05). The prognosis of the frontal lobe group was better than that of the temporal lobe group (P < .05). Compared to the endoscopic-assisted temporal approach, the endoscopic-assisted frontal lobe approach for the treatment of HICH can improve cerebral hemodynamic status, enhance treatment efficacy, and improve prognosis.
