Preoperative and Postoperative Midline Index Ratio and Pre- and Postoperative Variation of the Hematoma Thickness Accurately Predict Surgical Recurrence of Chronic Subdural Hematomas
Systematic early postoperative CT scan after cSDH evacuation may predict hematoma recurrence. In the present study, we found postoperative hyperdensity on CT scan and degree of hematoma variation after surgical evacuation to be the strongest predictors of the need for reoperation.
