RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value and efficacy of surgical treatment with neuroendoscopy with supported channel for hypertensive intraventricular hemorrhage (HIVH). METHODS: The clinical data of 32 patients with hypertensive intraventricular hemorrhage were retrospectively analyzed. And they underwent neuroendoscopy with supported channel. RESULTS: Computed tomography scans at Day 1 postoperation revealed that the evacuation of intraventricular hematoma was 85.4% in all patients. The Glasgow coma score (GCS) at Week 1 postoperation was significantly higher than that at preoperation. The postoperative outcomes were intracranial infection (n = 1), mortality (n = 1) and secondary hemorrhage (n = 3). All patients were followed up for 3 months. According to Glasgow outcome scale (GOS), there were excellent recovery (n = 17), moderate disability (n = 7), severe disability (n = 5) and vegetative survival (n = 3). CONCLUSION: The surgical treatment of neuroendoscopy with supported channel for HIVH offers great advantages with a low rate of complications and favorable outcomes.
