Study of predisposing risk factors and etiology of chronic subdural hematoma in clipped patients of unruptured intracranial aneurysms – an institutional experience

[摘要] Introduction Chronic subdural hematoma in clipped patients of unruptured intracranial aneurysms might lead to sudden neurological deterioration and may need emergency evacuation. We studied the effects of various factors in its etiology. Materials and methods A retrospective study of 91operated clipped patients of unruptured aneurysms in the year 2014-2015 was taken. Various predisposing factors were studied. Results Goreisan use was not associated with any reduction in post operative CSDH formation. Arachnoidoplasty and reduced post operative dead space contributed in a reduced formation of CSDH. Conclusion Older male patients with aneurysms who had been treated with anticoagulant drugs should be considered candidates for additive ARP to prevent the development of postoperative CSDH.
