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

Decompressive Craniectomy in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: The Intensivist’s Point of View

open access: yesDiseases, 2023
Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a severe pathology with important social and economic concerns, decompressive craniectomy (DC) represents a life-saving surgical option to treat elevated intracranial hypertension (ICP). The rationale

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
