Decompressive Craniectomy versus Craniotomy for Acute Subdural Hematoma.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2023
BACKGROUND Traumatic acute subdural hematomas frequently warrant surgical evacuation by means of a craniotomy (bone flap replaced) or decompressive craniectomy (bone flap not replaced). Craniectomy may prevent intracranial hypertension, but whether it is

Early Versus Delayed Cranioplasty After Decompressive Craniectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Behav
Overall Complications • Early cranioplasty showed a higher (but non‐significant) risk • RR 1.43 (95% CI: 0.81–2.53) • Heterogeneity: I2 = 57% Post‐operative Infection • Early cranioplasty associated with a non‐significant increase • RR 1.36 (95% CI: 0.36–5.11) • Heterogeneity: I2 = 38% Operative Time • Early cranioplasty resulted in a significantly ...

Cranioplasty Following Decompressive Craniectomy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Cranioplasty (CP) after decompressive craniectomy (DC) for trauma is a neurosurgical procedure that aims to restore esthesis, improve cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics, and provide cerebral protection. In turn, this can facilitate neurological rehabilitation and potentially enhance neurological recovery.

Prolonged course of brain edema and neurological recovery in a translational model of decompressive craniectomy after closed head injury in mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundThe use of decompressive craniectomy in traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a matter of debate. According to the DECRA trial, craniectomy may have a negative impact on functional outcome, while the RescueICP trial revealed a positive effect of
