The effect of different surgical methods and timing of surgery on the clinical efficacy in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia

Objective: To explore the effect of different surgical methods and timing on the clinical efficacy of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) in basal ganglia. Methods: A total of 200 patients with HICH in basal ganglia were divided into traditional craniotomy (TC) group, small bone window craniotomy (SBWC) group and neuroendoscopic minimally invasive surgery (NMIS) group. And they were also divided into ultra-early group, early group and delayed group, depending on the timing of surgery. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hematoma clearance rate and incidence of complications among different groups were recorded and analyzed. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) were used to evaluate the neurological function and prognosis. Results: The NMIS group was superior to the TC group and SBWC group in terms of operation time, and intraoperative blood loss, hematoma clearance rate, complication 6-months NIHSS scores and the GOS scores (P<0.05). There was no significant differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hematoma clearance rate and complication among the ultra-early group, the early group and the delayed group (P>0.05). While the ultra-early group was superior to the early group and the delayed group in terms of 6-month NIHSS scores and the GOS scores. Conclusion: NMIS could reduce the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and complications, and improve the hematoma clearance rate and prognosis of patients with HICH in basal ganglia. And the ultra-early surgical treatment improved the prognosis of patients with IHCH in basal ganglia.
