Frontal vs Parietal Eminence Drainage for Chronic Subdural Hematoma

Sponsor: The Second Hospital of Anhui Medical University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This clinical trial aims to find out whether the puncture site used during minimally invasive surgery with twist-drill puncture and closed-system drainage affects the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH). The target population is adults with a unilateral chronic subdural hematoma who need surgical drainage based on their symptoms and imaging findings (CT/MRI). The main questions this study is designed to answer are: * Does the puncture site affect the risk of same-side cSDH recurrence requiring reoperation within 3 months * Does the puncture site affect recovery and key clinical outcomes after surgery (including functional status and postoperative recovery measures) There are two groups, researchers will compare: * Group A: patients receiving puncture at the frontal region vs. * Group B: patients receiving puncture near the parietal eminence to determine whether one puncture site leads to better outcomes than the other. Participants will: * undergo a surgical procedure where, based on random assignment, the puncture site is either frontal or near the parietal eminence; * receive closed-system drainage after a twist-drill puncture; * complete follow-up assessments at discharge, 30 days, 3 months after surgery, which will include symptom review and imaging (CT) evaluations to check hematoma changes and recurrence; * have safety monitoring throughout the study period to record any complications or adverse events.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Frontal-region puncture drainage

Patients will undergo burr-hole puncture drainage at the frontal region (frontal puncture) for chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH).

PROCEDURE

Parietal Eminence region puncture drainage

Patients will undergo burr-hole puncture drainage at the Parietal Eminence/tubercle region (vertex puncture) for cSDH.
