A preliminary study on the selection criteria of drainage and craniotomy for patients with supratentorial cerebral hemorrhage

Abstract

The study involved a total of 288 patients with supratentorial cerebral hemorrhage who were surgically treated. Among them 140 patients underwent trepanation and drainage, and the other 148 patients underwent evacuation of hematoma. Through analyzing Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and the volume of hemorrhage before operation and after 6 months were related with the patients' disability rate and mortality rate. The delimitation standards of drainage and craniotomy were explored, and the reasonable techniques of supratentorial cerebral hemorrhage were investigated．
