Description
Summary:<p><strong>Background</strong><strong> </strong><strong>and </strong><strong>P</strong><strong>urposes</strong>: Stroke is still one of a leading health-care problem in industrial country and in the developing country. Spontaneous Intra-cerebral Hemorrhage accounts for 30–60% of all stroke admissions into a hospital. Presence of intra-cerebral hemorrhage is considered a poor prognostic factor due to the resultant obstruction to the mass effect following the presence of blood resulting in raised intracranial pressure. While the craniotomy procedure failed to show more benefits over functional outcome, a less invasive and quicker surgical decompression might improve the outcome. Neuroendoscopy is one of promising optional  on minimal invasive  treatment  for spontaneous intra-cerebral hemorrhage. <strong>Material and</strong> <strong>Methods</strong>: We evaluated Glasgow Outcome Score and clinical outcome of patients with Spontaneous Intra-cerebral Hemorrhage who underwent modified neuroendoscopic surgery and craniotomy. Randomized control trial was performed during 27 months in 43 patients. Twenty-five patients treated with neuroendoscopy surgery and 18 patients with craniotomy. The removal of intra-cerebral hemorrhage was done by a modified neuroendoscopic transparent sheath made of silastic material, derived from pieces of thoracic tube No. 21F as a conduit working channel. <strong>Results</strong>: We analyzed statistically, clinical outcome assessment and Glasgow Outcome Scale 6 months post operative follow-up period. The mortality rate was significantly higher by Pearson chi-square methods, in craniotomy group n=12 (63.2%) compared with neuroendoscopy group, n=7 (36.8%) (p&lt;.005). Patients with Glasgow Outcome Scale score 3–5 was higher in neuroendoscopy group, n=18 (75%) compared with craniotomy group n=6 (25%). The survival rate analyzed by Kaplan Meier methods, found that patients in the neuroendoscopy group were a significantly longer survival rate compare with the craniotomy group during 6 months post operative follow-up period. <strong>Conclusions</strong>: Treatment of spontaneous intra-cerebral hemorrhage with modified neuroendoscopy procedure was faster in action,safer and longer in survival rate and inexpensive.</p>
