Abstract:
Objective To investigate the new therapy for primary intraventricular hemorrhage (PIH).Methods 31 cases of PIH were treated by rigid neuroendoscopy.The cases were composed of 16 cases of single intraventricular hemorrhage,14 cases of double intraventricular hemorrhage and 1 case the third-fourth intraventricular hemorrhage.24 cases were accompanied with acute obstructive hydrocephalus.Results Duration of operation lasted from 30 minutes to 60 minutes, with an average time of 43.4 minutes.More than 90 percent of hemorrhage in 24 cases with single or double intraventricular hemorrhage were evacuated. 50 percent to 90 percent of hemorrhage were evacuated in other 7 cases. Neurological status was obviously improved and improved in 25 cases, no change in 4 cases and dead in 2 cases.Only one patient developed hydrocephalus.Conclusion Neuroendoscopic neurosurgy for PIH was characterized by visualized manipulation, shorten operative time,minimal invasion, effective hemorrhage evacuation and excellent post-operative outcomes.
