Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of decompressive craniectomy (DC) on patients with symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) following acute ischemic stroke, comparing outcomes between those who had surgery and those treated medically.
- It analyzed data from 85 patients across 8 stroke centers, revealing that DC patients were younger, had longer ICU stays, and showed better functional outcomes at 90 days compared to non-DC patients, especially if they were younger and did not have a history of cancer.
- The results indicate that the DC group had lower in-hospital mortality rates and came out with improved scores on the modified Rankin Scale, suggesting a potential benefit of surgery for select patients with severe sICH.
