Guidelines for the management of severe traumatic brain injury. Part 3. Surgical management of severe traumatic brain injury (Options)

Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the main causes of mortality and severe disability in young and middle age patients. Patients with severe TBI, who are in coma, are of particular concern. Adequate diagnosis of primary brain injuries and timely prevention and treatment of secondary injury mechanisms markedly affect the possibility of reducing mortality and severe disability. The present guidelines are based on the authors' experience in developing international and national recommendations for the diagnos… Show more

“…Preoperative cerebral angiography or CTA is recommended to evaluate suspected vascular injury or reveal the location of the hematoma. 16 Follow-up CT angiography or digital subtraction angiography is beneficial to rule out the possibility of a delayed carotid cavernous fistula and traumatic aneurysm. When a vascular injury is highly suspected based on CTA or digital subtraction angiography findings, 17 a craniotomy and removal of the foreign body under direct vision are recommended as the best approach.…”

“…During the original RCT, patients were treated using the following uniform protocol. (1) According to the Guidelines for the management of severe TBI [ 19 ], craniotomy for TBI was performed primarily to decompress and remove hematomas. (2) During the procedure, all patients underwent ventricular puncture.…”

“…Patients with brain herniation often suffer from intracranial lesions and simultaneous or habitual damage to other organs. Posttraumatic cerebral infarction (PTCI) is one of the most common secondary lesions in patients with cerebral herniation ( 1 ). The incidence rate in the first 2 weeks after injury is as high as 71.6% ( 2 ).…”
