Article Synopsis
  • Subdural hematoma (SDH) is a serious brain condition primarily affecting older adults, for whom traditional surgery poses high risks due to possible complications and blood loss.
  • The study examined six patients treated with endoscopic evacuation, a minimally invasive method that uses a burr hole and rigid lens endoscope to remove hematomas more efficiently.
  • Results showed no surgical fatalities among patients aged 63 to 84, with significant improvements in hematoma clearance rates, demonstrating the effectiveness of endoscope-assisted techniques for this demographic while highlighting the need for further research on patient selection and long-term outcomes.
