Abstract
ObjectiveThis work focused on investigating if robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery improved middle term vital outcome for primary brainstem hemorrhage (PBSH). MethodsThis work obtained clinical data from patients with PBSH admitted from July 2019 to August 2021. All cases were classified as surgical or conservative treatment group. The general information, Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score, Glasgow outcome score (GOS), along with survival time in patients 60 days after robot-assisted surgery were recorded and analyzed. ResultsA prospective analysis was performed on 82 cases meeting eligibility criteria, including 36 from surgical group whereas 46 from the conservative group. Sixty days after onset, the death rate was found to be 19.44% and 50.00% of surgical and conservative groups, separately (cases versus controls, P < 0.05). Furthermore, postoperative GOS and GCS scores of surgical group were significantly higher, and hydrocephalus was lower compared with conservative group. Central fever incidence did not exhibit any significant difference between two groups. ConclusionRobot-assisted PBSH drainage may improve survivorship and reduce the occurrence of hydrocephalus.
