A comparison of the efficacy of computed tomography-guided minimally invasive puncture and drainage and craniotomy for hematoma evacuation in the treatment of cerebellar hemorrhage.

The efficacy of CT-guided MIPD in the treatment of cerebellar hemorrhage is close to that of craniotomy for hematoma excavation, although the complication and disability rates of the former are significantly lower than those of the latter. When the preoperative hematoma volume is less than 30 mL or the preoperative GCS score is greater than 8, CT-guided MIPD represents a better choice for the treatment of cerebellar hemorrhage than craniotomy for hematoma evacuation.
