Delayed traumatic intracerebral haematomas (DTICH) occur in 12.2% of head injury patients, often appearing within 48 hours. Early intracranial pressure monitoring and surgical intervention can improve outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Radiology
  • Trauma Care

Background:

  • Head injuries can lead to delayed complications.
  • Delayed traumatic intracerebral haematomas (DTICH) represent a significant, yet often overlooked, consequence of head trauma.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the incidence and characteristics of DTICH.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of early monitoring and surgical intervention for DTICH.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of CT scans from 378 head injury inpatients.
  • Continuous intracranial pressure monitoring in select patients.
  • Surgical intervention and hematoma evacuation for severe cases.

Main Results:

  • DTICH incidence was 12.2% (46 patients, 71 haematomas).

  • 80.7% of DTICH cases were identified within 48 hours post-injury.
  • The observed mortality rate was 17.4%, lower than previously reported figures (44%-71%).
  • Conclusions:

    • DTICH is a notable complication of head injury, predominantly affecting younger to middle-aged individuals.
    • Early intracranial pressure monitoring aids in timely DTICH diagnosis.
    • Surgical intervention, including hematoma cleansing, is recommended for patients with multiple or space-occupying haematomas, leading to improved survival rates.
