1 maj 2021 · Extra-axial fluid collections (EACs) frequently develop after decompressive craniectomy. Management of EACs remains poorly understood, and information on how to predict their clinical course is inadequate. We aimed to better characterize EACs, understand predictors of their resolution, and delineate the best treatment paradigm for patients.
Background: Extra-axial fluid collections (EACs) frequently develop after decompressive craniectomy. Management of EACs remains poorly understood, and information on how to predict their clinical course is inadequate.

Cranioplasty (CP) after decompressive craniectomy (DC) for trauma is a neurosurgical procedure that aims to restore esthesis, improve cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics, and provide cerebral protection.
1 wrz 2012 · This study aims to elucidate the phenomenon of extra-axial fluid collections after decompressive craniectomy in patients with treated hydrocephalus, in order to improve identification, classification, prevention and treatment.
7 sie 2024 · Decompressive craniectomy is used to alleviate intracranial pressure in cases of traumatic brain injury and stroke by removing part of the skull to allow brain expansion. Traditionally, this procedure is followed by a watertight dural suture, although evidence supporting this method is not strong.
