General principles

  • There is no advantage of early haematoma evacuation
  • Best outcomes for early evacuation is if the patient is deteriorating
  • Surgical drainage is preferable to ventricular drainage in cerebellar ICH

Clot evacuation: techniques

Clot evacuation: indications for cerebellar ICH

Clot evacuation: indications for hemispheric ICH

Ventricular drainage

Emerging surgical treatments
