Article Synopsis
- Neuroendoscopy is an effective, minimally invasive technique for treating Chronic Subdural Hematoma (CSH), and the study aims to improve preoperative planning for this procedure.
- CT imaging was utilized in a study involving forty-two patients to accurately locate hematomas and determine the best surgical approach, resulting in efficient surgeries with an average operation time of around one hour and a hematoma clearance rate of about 95%.
- The study concludes that this method of using CT scans for planning significantly enhances surgical outcomes for CSH patients by allowing precise positioning and smaller surgical openings.
