Abstract

The indication for surgical intervention in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage remains controversial. Although many clinical trials have failed to demonstrate its efficacy over medical treatment, less invasive endoscopic treatment is expected to demonstrate its superiority. A novel endoscopic system for hematoma removal consisting of a 3.1-mm-diameter 4K high-resolution rigid endoscope was used.The system was used in eight cases of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. It provided improved maneuverability of the surgical instrument while maintaining satisfactory image quality. The surgical goal was achieved in all cases without any complications, including perioperative rebleeding.Endoscopic hematoma removal using the 3.1 mm high-resolution endoscope is an alternative minimally invasive approach to spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage with improved reliability.
