Abstract

In this manuscript there was carried out the comparison results of surgical treatment of 314 patients with massive hypertensive supratentorial hematomas, operated on by conventional methods (48,7% patients) and with use of endoscope-assisted technique (51,3% patients). Groups had no essential differences in such criteria as localization and size of hematoma, patient’s age, state of consciousness while entering. Evaluation of the results was performed 6 months after surgical intervention. Group of patients operated with use of endoscope-assisted technique showed a significantly lower mortality rate than operated on by conventional methods. 18% of these patients had a good outcome with no or only a minimal deficit versus 7,2% in the conventional surgery group (the difference statistically significant, P<0,05). This is reached by decreasing of operative interference traumatization, the presence of visual control of all operative stages, careful hemostasis and radical removal of intracerebral hematomas.
