“…Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a high mortality (35%-52% at he 30th day) and only about 20% of survivors achieve a favorable functional outcome (1,3,23). Surgical removal of hematoma helps to relieve the mass effect of hematoma and to prevent the secondary damage induced by toxic substances precipitated from hematoma (16,17,21,25).…”

AIm:The aim of the retrospective study was to compare the clinical efficacy of the traditional way of aspiration and the modified way of aspiration. mAterIAl and methOds: Clinical data of total 159 patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage treated by traditional (group A, n=66) or modified (group B, n=93) way of aspiration (both combined with thrombolysis) were retrospectively analyzed. Reduction of clot volume in the first operation, rate of mortality and re-bleeding, complications, and long-term clinical outcomes of the two groups were compared.results: Twenty-five out of 159 patients (15.7%) died during in-hospital stay. The mortality and post-operation re-bleeding rate in group B (10.8% and 1.1%) were significantly lower than that in group A (22.7% and 9.1%), (P<0.05). The BI scores of patients in group B (79.5±23.2) were significantly higher than that in group A (69.2±23.9), (P<0.05).COnClusIOn: Our data suggested that modifying details of aspiration operation may contribute to the improved prognosis of ICH patients.KeywOrds: Hematoma aspiration, Thrombolysis, Intracerebral hemorrhage, Outcome ÖZ AmAÇ: Retrospektif olarak yapılan bu çalışmada, klasik yol ile yapılan aspirasyon (Grup A) ile değiştirilmiş (modified) (Grup B) yöntemle yapılan aspirasyonun klinik etkinliği karşılaştırılmıştır. yÖntem ve GereÇ: Spontan intrakraniyal kanama geçiren 159 hasta retrospektif olarak iki ayrı grup halinde incelendi. İlk gruptaki 66 hastaya geleneksel yoldan aspirasyon yapılırken, 2. gruptaki 93 hastaya tromboliz yapılarak aspirasyon uygulanmıştır. Pıhtı hacmindeki azalma, mortalite hızı, yeniden kanama, komplikasyonlar ve geç dönem klinik sonuçları iki grupta karşılaştırılmıştır.BulGulAr: Toplam 159 hastadan, 25'i hastanede kaldıkları sürede öldü (%5,7). Mortalite hızı ve yeniden kanama hızı grup B'de (%10,8 ve %1,1grup A'ya (%22,7 ve %9,1) göre anlamlı şekilde düşük olarak bulundu (P<0,05). BI ölçütlemesi grup B'deki hastalarda (79,5±23,2), grup A'daki (69,2±23,9) hastalara göre anlamlı şekilde daha yüksek bulundu (P<0,05).sOnuÇ: İntrakraniyal kanaması olan hastalarda modifiye edilmiş aspirasyon yöntemi ile prognoz daha iyi hale gelebilmektedir.

“…For example, there is evidence demonstrating the safety and technical success of frameless stereotactic intracerebral hemorrhagic aspiration. [18][19][20][21] The evacuation of deep intracerebral hemorrhage requiring conventional neuro-navigational software could be further optimized by using FPCT navigation techniques. Additionally, the ability to simultaneously perform endovascular intervention opens the door to true tandem procedures, (eg, stereotactic aspiration of an epidural hematoma and meningeal artery embolization).…”

SUMMARY:FPCT and navigation software on contemporary fluoroscopic units perform imaging of a quality comparable with conventional CT. They can accurately guide percutaneous procedures, providing live instrument visualization and the capability to re-image without patient transfer. FPCT navigation was used in the placement of a ventricular drain in a 62-year-old woman for subarachnoidrelated hydrocephalus by using an otherwise standard bedside technique. Ventriculostomy catheter placement was technically successful without complication with a catheter at the foramen of Monro.ABBREVIATIONS: DSA ϭ digital subtraction angiography; FPCT ϭ flat panel detector CT F PCT and integrated guidance software available on contemporary fluoroscopic systems emit a lower radiation dose while producing imaging of a quality comparable with that of conventional CT.1-5 They also have the ability to perform percutaneous procedures within the body, spine, and head and neck safely and accurately.4-11 FPCT demonstrates excellent spatial resolution and, though limited in subtle contrast differentiation, is of diagnostic accuracy in the assessment of general cerebral anatomy and higher attenuation features such as hemorrhage. [5][6][7][8]10,11 Beyond the ability of FPCTbased navigation to quickly and accurately target a particular focus is the provision of real-time instrument visualization using live fluoroscopic overlay and the capability of re-imaging without moving the patient, limitations of current neuronavigational programs. 10Ventricular drain catheter placement in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhageϪrelated hydrocephalus is a common neurosurgical procedure. Performed at the bedside by using anatomic landmarks, ventriculostomy placement is safe and accurate with a low rate of complications.12-15 Given the frequent need for ventricular drain placement and the relative technical ease of the procedure, we chose it as means to demonstrate proof of principle regarding transcranial FPCT guidance. We herein describe the use of the navigation system in the placement of a ventriculostomy catheter. Case ReportA 62-year-old woman presented with altered mental status. Physical examination revealed an intubated obtunded patient with left-sided hemiplegia and equal and reactive pupils. CT of the head showed diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage, hydrocephalus, and significant hemorrhage in the basal cisterns. CT angiography revealed a 6 ϫ 7 mm right-sided posterior communicating artery aneurysm and a 3 ϫ 2 mm left-sided middle cerebral artery aneurysm.The patient underwent emergent FPCT-guided ventriculostomy placement in the angiography suite. To minimize movement, we carefully taped her head to the table. The left scalp was prepped, and a 1-cm incision was made at the Kocher point, approximately 11 cm posterior to the glabella and 3 cm lateral to midline in the midpupillary line. A twist-drill craniostomy was performed. The dura and pia mater were cauterized and incised.Before catheter placement, an FPCT (XperCT and XperGuide; Philips Healthcare,...
