Risk factors of posthemorrhagic seizure in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.

Neurosurg Rev

January 2025

Division of Neurosurgery, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, 2 Wang Lang Road, Bangkok Noi, Bangkok, 10700, Thailand.

Seizure is a relatively common neurological consequence after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH). This study aimed to investigate risk factors of early, late, and overall seizures in patients with SICH. Retrospective analysis was performed on all patients with SICH who completed two years of follow-up.

Hydrocephalus, whether arising from post-hemorrhagic or post-traumatic origins, poses significant challenges in clinical management. Lumboperitoneal shunting (LPS) emerges as a viable therapeutic intervention, yet comparative analyses between these etiologies remain scarce. This retrospective study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of LPS placement in patients with post-hemorrhagic (PHH) and post-traumatic hydrocephalus (PTH).

Disturbances in the brain fluid balance can lead to life-threatening elevation in intracranial pressure (ICP), which represents a vast clinical challenge. Targeted and efficient pharmaceutical therapy of elevated ICP is not currently available, as the molecular mechanisms governing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) secretion are largely unresolved. To resolve the quantitative contribution of key choroid plexus transport proteins, this study employs mice with genetic knockout and/or viral choroid plexus-specific knockdown of aquaporin 1 (AQP1) and the Na, K, 2Cl cotransporter 1 (NKCC1) for in vivo determinations of CSF dynamics, ex vivo choroid plexus for transporter-mediated clearance of a CSF K load, and patient CSF for [K] quantification.

Background: Very few adequately powered studies exploring early thresholds for intervention in the management of post-hemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) in preterm infants have identified consistent neurodevelopmental advantages at 12-30 months. We aimed to conduct a meta-analysis on the efficacy and safety of early versus conservative thresholds for intervention, primarily aimed at normalizing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure, in the management of PHVD in preterm infants.

Methods: Multiple databases were searched for eligible papers, and prospective randomized trials involving preterm infants were selected.

Background: Early intervention for post-hemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD), guided by ventricular size measurements from cranial ultrasound (cUS), is associated with improved neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants but benefits must be balanced against intervention risks.

Methods: Anterior horn width (AHW) and ventricular index (VI) were measured from cUS for preterm infants (<29 weeks) with intraventricular hemorrhage admitted from 2010-2018. PHVD was defined as AHW > 6 mm or VI >97th percentile for postmenstrual age.
