Drain type and technique for subdural insertion after burr hole evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma
Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Tidsskriftartikel › Forskning › fagfællebedømt
Strengths and limitations of subdural versus subperiosteal drain location after burr hole evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) are currently debated. The safety of subdural placement of a drain has been questioned in a recent study by Soleman et al. from 2019, showing a misplacement rate of 17%, and these results have been further highlighted by the same authors, with a slightly lower misplacement rate of 15.8%, in the recent paper “When the drain hits the brain.” The safety of subdural drainage for CSDH depends to a high degree on type of drain and surgical technique. In this technical note, we describe drain type and technique for drain placement which is standardized in Denmark.
