[A primary study on treatment of intracranial hematomas with specially designed needle puncture]

We treat hematomas by special designed needles and other techniques for breaking and liquefying hematoma. This method is easy to learn and needn't operation room, even can be done at the patient's bedside. Its merits the included point wound without craniotomy, low medical cost and satisfactory result. We treat 112 patients with hypertensive intracranial hematomas, 25 patients with acute epidural hamatoma and 17 patients with hematoma due to other causes. In the total of 154 patients, 20 had brain herniations and 104 coma. The mortality was very low (8.44%). 94 patients (91.34%) woke up in 1 to 2 weeks.
