Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to explore the preliminary efficacy of neuroendoscopy-assisted small bone window craniotomy to treat acute subdural hematoma in young and middle-aged patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from six young and middle-aged patients with acute subdural hematoma who underwent neuroendoscopy-assisted small bone window craniotomy at our hospital between October 2021 and June 2024. The acute subdural hematomas were cleared using a neuroendoscope. We analyzed the recorded surgical times, hematoma clearance rates, changes in preoperative and postoperative Glasgow Coma Scale scores, and complications. Results: All patients achieved satisfactory hematoma clearance, with an overall clearance rate of >96%. Intraoperative hemostasis was satisfactory, and no complications such as postoperative rebleeding, were observed. Postoperative neurological function recovered well. Conclusion: Neuroendoscopy-assisted small bone window surgery is a safe and effective minimally invasive option, especially suitable for young and middle-aged patients with acute subdural hematoma; however, it requires larger sample validation.
