Department of Neurosurgery, Saiseikai Shiga Hospital, Imperial Gift Foundation Inc., Ritto, Shiga, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- Intracranial vascular injuries (VIs) during surgery can lead to serious neurological problems, and a study reviewed the types and causes of such injuries observed in a large number of craniotomy procedures at a single institution.
- Out of 2,228 craniotomy cases, unexpected VIs occurred in 18 patients, often due to errors in technique, with specific incidents involving aneurysm neck tears, arterial injuries, and venous injuries.
- Most VIs were managed successfully with quick interventions, resulting in no neurological deterioration for the majority of patients, but highlighted the need for adherence to surgical protocols to minimize human errors.
