Summary

This study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients with chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) undergoing surgical evacuation using either single or double burr-hole craniostomy.

The comparison focuses on key outcome measures including recurrence rate, postoperative complications, neurological improvement, length of hospital stay, and overall functional recovery, in order to determine the most effective and safe surgical technique.

Conditions

  • Chronic Subdural Hematoma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Chronic Subdural Hematoma Evacuation

Single burr-hole technique: A single burr hole was made over the maximum thickness of the hematoma followed by dural opening, irrigation with warm saline, and placement of a drain. Double burr-hole technique: Two burr holes were created (frontal and parietal), allowing more extensive irrigation and evacuation of the hematoma, followed by drain placement.
