OBJECTIVE: Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) has an increasing incidence and
results in high morbidity and mortality. We review here the 10-year experience of
a single institution and the literature regarding the treatment and major
associations of cSDH. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed all cSDHs surgically
treated from 2000 to 2010 in the New York Harbor Health Care System to evaluate
the duration from admission to treatment, type of treatment, length of stay (LOS)
in critical care, LOS in the hospital, and recurrence. The literature was
reviewed with regards to incidence, associations, and treatment of cSDH. RESULTS:
From 2000 to 2008, 44 patients were treated with burr holes (BHs). From 2008 to
2010, 29 patients were treated with twist-drill evacuation (subdural evacuating
port system, SEPS). Four patients from each group were readmitted for reoperation
(9% vs 14%; P = 0.53). The average time to intervention for SEPS (11.2 ± 15.3
hours) was faster than for BHs (40.3 ± 69.1 hours) (P = 0.02). The total hospital
LOS was shorter for SEPS (9.3 ± 6.8 days) versus BHs (13.4 ± 10.2 days) (P =
0.04); both were significantly longer than for a brain tumor patient undergoing
craniotomy (7.0 ± 0.5 days, n = 94, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Despite decreasing
LOSs as treatment for cSDH evolved from BHs to SEPS, the LOS for a cSDH is still
longer than that of a patient undergoing craniotomy for brain tumor. We noted 11%
recurrence in our series of patients, which included individuals who recurred as
late as 3 years after initial diagnosis.
