Background:
Minimally invasive endoscopic hematoma evacuation (MEHE) is an emerging surgical technique for treating spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage (SSICH). Multiple studies, analysing whether the outcome after such a procedure is improved, are still ongoing.
Method:
We herein present the indications, advantages, and perioperative considerations for the surgical technique of MEHE applied at our institution.
Conclusion:
MEHE with a view through a transparent brain access device is a valid and safe approach for the surgical evacuation of SSICH.
