ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Noncontrast computed tomography (CT) markers are increasingly used for predicting hematoma expansion. The aim of our study was to investigate the predictive value of expansion-prone hematoma in predicting hematoma expansion and outcome in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).METHODS:
Between July 2011 and January 2017, ICH patients who underwent baseline CT scan within 6 h of symptoms onset and follow-up CT scan were recruited into the study. Expansion-prone hematoma was defined as the presence of one or more of the following imaging markers blend sign, black hole sign, or island sign. The diagnostic performance of blend sign, black hole sign, island sign, and expansion-prone hematoma in predicting hematoma expansion was assessed. Predictors of hematoma growth and poor outcome were analyzed using multivariable logistical regression analysis.RESULTS:
A total of 282 patients were included in our final analysis. Of 88 patients with early hematoma growth, 69 (78.4%) had expansion-prone hematoma. Expansion-prone hematoma had a higher sensitivity and accuracy for predicting hematoma expansion and poor outcome when compared with any single imaging marker. After adjustment for potential confounders, expansion-prone hematoma independently predicted hematoma expansion (OR 28.33; 95% CI 12.95-61.98) and poor outcome (OR 5.67; 95% CI 2.82-11.40) in multivariable logistic model.CONCLUSION:
Expansion-prone hematoma seems to be a better predictor than any single noncontrast CT marker for predicting hematoma expansion and poor outcome. Considering the high risk of hematoma expansion in these patients, expansion-prone hematoma may be a potential therapeutic target for anti-expansion treatment in future clinical studies.Mots clés
