Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Minimally-invasive surgery (MIS) has been increasingly used in recent years. We systematically reviewed the role of MIS in the acute management of ICH using various techniques. ⋯ The role of minimally invasive techniques in the management of ICH remains under dispute. However, a mounting evidence in the literature demonstrates that MIS is associated with significantly improved outcomes when compared with conservative treatment and conventional surgical evacuation strategy.
