    ObjectiveTo compare the differences in postoperative complications and prognosis between patients treated with neuroendoscopy versus conventional craniotomy surgery for hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH).MethodsIn this retrospective study, a total of 107 patients with HICH were included. Among them, 58 underwent neuroendoscopy (Group A), while 49 underwent conventional craniotomy under microscopic guidance (Group B). Intracranial pressure monitoring was applied in both groups. The clinical data, incidence of postoperative complications, preoperative and postoperative intracranial pressure values, and rate of favorable prognosis were compared between the 2 groups.ResultsNo significant difference in baseline clinical data upon admission was observed between the 2 groups (P > 0.05). The preoperative intracranial pressure did not differ between the 2 groups (P > 0.05), but the postoperative intracranial pressure in Group A was significantly lower than that in Group B (P < 0.05). After intervention with the different surgical approaches, Group A showed a significantly lower incidence of postoperative cerebral infarction and a significantly higher rate of favorable prognosis compared with Group B (P < 0.05).ConclusionsNeuroendoscopy combined with Intracranial pressure monitoring is a safe and reliable approach for the treatment of HICH that reduces the incidence of postoperative cerebral infarction and improves the recovery of neurological function after surgery.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
