Efficacy of neuroendoscopy-assisted surgery in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma: a meta-analysis

Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is one of the most common diseases in neurosurgery. It is the result of chronic intracranial hemorrhage that converges between the dura mater and arachnoid three weeks after externally injuring the head. Chronic subdural hematomas are a common complication in neurosurgery. With the gradual increase in the amount of hematoma, the surrounding brain tissue is pushed and compressed, resulting in corresponding clinical symptoms and signs. It is reported that the overall incidence rate of CSDH is 1.72 to 20.6 per 100,000 people every year, and the incidence rate of the elderly is particularly high.
