ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Brainstem hemorrhage is an acute and severe neurosurgical disease. Cerebral hemorrhage is surgically treated via hematoma puncture drainage because of its minimally invasive nature. However, the placement of puncture must be extremely accurate due to the special anatomical location of the brainstem and its physiological functions. The present study aimed to evaluate whether the application of a three-dimensional (3D)-printed navigation mold achieved good outcomes in the surgical treatment of brainstem hemorrhage. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
The present study included seven patients (three men and four women aged 40-56 y) who underwent 3D print-assisted hematoma puncture drainage between June 2016 and March 2018 at Binzhou Medical University Hospital. The amount of brainstem hemorrhage was 15-47 mL. We analyzed the basic surgical conditions, deviation distance, and postoperative clinical improvement.RESULTS:
In all cases, the operation was completed successfully; no patient died or contracted an infection intraoperatively. The end of the puncture tube was located in the hematoma cavity in all cases. The deviation distance ranged from 2.5 to 7.2, and this distance gradually reduced with improvements in the technique. The hematoma drainage achieved satisfactory postoperative outcomes, with improvements in symptoms such as respiratory failure and hyperthermia.CONCLUSIONS:
Use of a 3D-printed navigation mold for puncture drainage of brainstem hemorrhage realized the purpose of individualized and precision medicine, which is important in maintaining the vital signs of patients with severe brainstem hemorrhage.Palabras clave
