RESUMEN
ABSTRACT: Intraventricular hemorrhage is a serious intracerebral hemorrhagic disease with high mortality and poor prognosis. This retrospective study designed to investigate the therapeutic effect of transcortical approach surgery versus extraventricular drainage (EVD) on patients with intraventricular hemorrhage.Patients with intraventricular hemorrhage in Zhongshan City People's Hospital from January 01, 2014 to June 01, 2019 were retrospectively examined. They were divided into transcortical approach surgery groups and EVD groups to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis.A total of 96 patients were enrolled in the study (24 in the transcortical approach surgery group and 72 in the EVD group). The efficiency of postoperative operation was 15/19 in the transcortical approach surgery group and 24/48 in the EVD group (Pâ=â.012). The Glasgow Outcome Scale was 3.63â±â1.27 in the transcortical approach surgery group and 2.80â±â1.87 in the EVD group (Pâ=â.049). The postoperative residual blood volume was 9.62â±â3.64âmL in the transcortical approach surgery group and 33.60â±â3.53âmL in the EVD group (Pâ<â.001). The incidence of hydrocephalus after the operation was 1/23 in the transcortical approach surgery group and 19/53 in the EVD group. The 30-day postoperative mortality was 16/56 in the EVD group and 1/23 in the transcortical approach surgery group. The transcortical approach surgery group was significantly better compared with the EVD group.This study showed that the transcortical approach for ventricular hemorrhage compared with EVD improved the hematoma clearance rate, shortened catheterization time, reduced the incidence of postoperative hydrocephalus, decreased patient mortality, led to a better prognosis, and reduced complications of hydrocephalus.

BACKGROUND: Antiplatelet therapy is critical in the management of coronary artery diseases. For patients undergoing cardiac surgeries, including coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and valve replacement, controversy remains in preoperative antiplatelet therapy concerning risk of bleeding. For safety concern, aspirin is recommended to be withdrawn 5 to 10 days before a cardiac surgery. Recent studies, however, indicate that preoperative aspirin may have a protective effect on cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). OBJECTIVE: To estimate the efficacy of preoperative aspirin in preventing CSA-AKI. METHODS AND RESULTS: Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies (OSs) of patients, who had undergone CABG, valve replacement, or combined surgery. These studies compared preoperative aspirin with placebo/no aspirin and reported the least incidence of CSA-AKI. One RCT and five OSs met the inclusion criteria. Data retrieved suggested that aspirin prescribed within five days before cardiac surgery decreased post-operative renal failure [odds ratio (OR), 0.67; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.50-0.89; P < 0.01] and 30-day mortality (OR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.53-0.77; P < 0.01). One RCT and three OSs suggested aspirin protected from major adverse cardiocerebral events (MACE) (OR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.76-1.01; P = 0.07). One RCT and two OSs suggested aspirin did not increase risk of re-exploration for bleeding (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.76-1.34; P = 0.95). CONCLUSION: Preoperative low-dose aspirin decreases post-operative CSA-AKI, mortality, and MACE without increasing the risk of re-exploration. But most of the studies are observational. They lack a uniformed standard on prescription of aspirin and outcomes measurement. No stratification analysis is performed concerning different types of surgical procedures and comorbidities. More randomized controlled trials are necessary to confirm the efficacy and safety of preoperative aspirin prescription.
