The Kempe incision for decompressive craniectomy, craniotomy, and cranioplasty in traumatic brain injury and stroke.

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2021
OBJECTIVE Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is an effective, lifesaving option for reducing intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, and other pathologies with elevated ICP.

Contemporary Review on Craniectomy and Cranioplasty; Part 1: Decompressive Craniectomy

The Journal of craniofacial surgery (Print), 2021
This paper aims to review clinical benefits of decompressive craniectomy (DC) in both adult and paediatric populations; its indications and factors contributing to its postoperative success. The Glasgow Outcome Scale and the Modified Rankin Scale are the

Decompressive Craniectomy in Pregnant Women

Journal of Neurological Surgery Part A: Central European Neurosurgery, 2021
AbstractMalignant middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction warranting decompressive craniectomy (DC) is unusual in the population younger than 40 years. Specifically, only a few cases affecting pregnant women have been described in the literature. We present the case of a 39-year-old woman in the 24th week of pregnancy who suffered a right malignant MCA

Editorial: Decompressive craniectomy

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2012
The accompanying article by Bor-Seng-Shu et al.1 attempts to address a rather straightforward question: Does decompressive craniectomy reduce intracranial pressure (ICP) and increase cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) in the setting of traumatic brain injury?

Decompressive craniectomy versus craniotomy for acute subdural hematoma: Updated meta-analysis of real-world clinical outcome after RESCUE-ASDH trial

Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery
This real-world evidence validates the results of the RESCUE-ASDH trial, affirming that both craniotomy and decompressive craniectomy offer comparable disability and quality of life outcomes for patients with traumatic acute subdural hematoma ...

Decompressive Craniectomy in Neurocritical Care

Seminars in Neurology, 2016
Neurosurgeons increasingly use decompressive craniectomy (DC) in neurocritical care. In this review, the authors summarize the topic of DC for the neurointensivist. Following a brief overview of the procedure, the major indications for the procedure are described.

Self-supervised Skull Reconstruction in Brain CT Images with Decompressive Craniectomy

International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, 2020
Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is a common surgical procedure consisting of the removal of a portion of the skull that is performed after incidents such as stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI) or other events that could result in acute subdural ...

DECOMPRESSIVE CRANIECTOMY FOR INTRACEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE

Neurosurgery, 2009
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a high mortality rate and leaves most survivors disabled. The dismal outcome is mostly due to the mass effect of hematoma plus edema. Major clinical trials show no benefit from surgical or medical treatment. Decompressive craniectomy has, however, proven beneficial for large ischemic brain infarction with massive ...

Cranioplasty Reverses Dysfunction of the Solutes Distribution in the Brain Parenchyma After Decompressive Craniectomy.

Neurosurgery, 2020
BACKGROUND Solutes distribution by the intracranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fluxes along perivascular spaces and through interstitial fluid (ISF) play a key role in the clearance of brain metabolites, with essential functions in maintaining brain ...

Brainstem hemorrhage following decompressive craniectomy

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2012
Decompressive craniectomy (DC) is used for the management of refractory raised intracranial pressure, but the impact of DC on surgical outcome is still controversial. We report a 21-year-old man admitted to our hospital after a road traffic accident. The brain CT scan revealed a left hemispheric acute subdural hematoma.
