Chronic subdural hematomas are complex collections that usually form after a trauma, particularly in elderly patients. This vulnerable population is at increased risk given the current viral pandemic. We share our experience in managing minimally symptomatic, enlarging subdural collections via middle meningeal embolization through the outpatient setting. This approach minimizes inpatient hospitalizations in hopes or reducing nosocomial spread (e.g., of COVID-19).
慢性硬脑膜下血肿是一种复杂的血肿,通常在创伤后形成,尤其是在老年患者中。由于当前的病毒大流行,这一脆弱人群的风险增加。我们通过门诊途径分享了我们在通过中层脑膜栓塞术治疗症状轻微、逐渐增大的硬脑膜下血肿方面的经验。这种方法最大限度地减少了住院治疗,希望减少医院内传播(例如 COVID-19 的传播)。
