Abstract Minimally invasive endoscopic hematoma evacuation is a promising treatment option for intracerebral hemorrhage ICH. However, the technique still needs improvement. We report our early clinical experience of using this technique to evacuate supratentorial spontaneous intracerebral hematomas and evaluate its short term outcomes. The study included 15 patients, basal ganglia hematoma was the most common location 62.5%, mean preoperative hematoma volume was 61.07 cc, mean ICH score was 3, and mean rate of evacuation is 89.27%. Factors with statistical significance that could be related to mortality were GCS on admission (P=0.001), ICH score (P=0.004), Postoperative GCS (P< 0.001), Postoperative hematoma volume (P=0.006), Intraventricular extension (P=0.001), and Rate of evacuation (P=0.001) |
