| dc.description.abstract | Introduction: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a prevalent condition commonly seen in elderly individuals, often requiring neurosurgical intervention. Research question: This study investigates patient characteristics and recurrence rates in CSDH patients treated with single or double burr hole surgery in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on patients treated for CSDH between January 2018 and December 2022. The diagnosis of CSDH was confirmed through preoperative CT or MRI of the brain. Patients underwent either single or double burr hole surgery based on the neurosurgeon's decision. Preoperative and postoperative brain CT scans, along with clinical outcomes, were analyzed. Results: A total of 87 patients were included in the study, with 102 burr hole surgeries performed. Among these, 49 patients received single burr hole surgery, while 53 patients underwent double burr hole surgery. Recurrence of CSDH occurred in 8.8% of cases, with no significant difference observed between the groups. Notably, single burr hole surgery demonstrated comparable efficacy to double burr hole surgery in terms of subdural reduction and occurrence of pneumocephalus, while exhibiting fewer complications and shorter hospitalization. Discussion and conclusions: burr hole surgery, whether performed as a single or double procedure, is an effective treatment option for CSDH, as it leads to positive outcomes in both radiological and clinical assessments of patients following surgery. The population of Bosnia and Herzegovina receives good neurosurgical care for CSDH. | |
