<0.001) patients experienced slightly longer length of stay compared to White patients. The odds of experiencing any complication were similar across races. Conclusion In this nationwide analysis, racial disparities were present in that Black patients were at increased odds of poor outcomes and both Black and Hispanic patients experience longer lengths of stay when compared to White patients after adjusting for several possible confounding factors. In the shared effort to provide equitable care, an important first step is analyzing and acknowledging the differences in objective outcomes as racial disparities in neurosurgery. Understanding the specific factors underlying the differences, such as possible differences in care access, is the next step to improve health equity in cerebrovascular neurosurgery.
