Many factors influenced the prognosis; the most important factors affecting prognosis were the initial neurological condition and secondary brain edema, while the initial neurological status were associated with pupillary abnormality, clinical progression, the number and volume of TEDH, and midline shift. Although the outcome was excellent in most cases, early diagnosis and surgical evacuation before irreversible brain damage was important to lower mortality for those massive TEDHs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
