Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization Is Associated With Lower Risk of Incident Dementia Among Patients With Subdural Hematoma

Among nonsurgical, dementia-free patients with NASDH, standalone MMAE was associated with significantly reduced incident dementia risk compared with CM. These findings suggest MMAE may provide neurocognitive benefits beyond preventing hematoma progression, potentially through promoting hematoma resorption and preserving cortical integrity. Prospective studies are needed to confirm these hypothesis-generating observations and establish causality.

Abstract

Among nonsurgical, dementia-free patients with NASDH, standalone MMAE was associated with significantly reduced incident dementia risk compared with CM. These findings suggest MMAE may provide neurocognitive benefits beyond preventing hematoma progression, potentially through promoting hematoma resorption and preserving cortical integrity. Prospective studies are needed to confirm these hypothesis-generating observations and establish causality.
