Abstract

Primary decompressive craniectomy (DC) is performed alongside the removal of mass lesions from traumatic brain injury (TBI). The Helsinki computed tomography (CT) score predicts post-TBI outcomes and is partly based on the size of the mass lesion. It remains unclear if this scoring system can be applied to this subgroup and exhibit discriminative ability. This study sought to validate the prognostic value of the Helsinki CT score in TBI patients undergoing primary DC. In this retrospective analysis, we evaluated 187 patients who underwent primary DC for TBI. Short-term outcomes, identified at discharge, included all participants (N = 187), while long-term outcomes were ascertained either through a minimum 12-month follow-up or up to the patient's death (N = 162). The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score of 1-3 denoted unfavorable outcomes. Higher Helsinki CT scores corresponded with an increase in unfavorable outcomes. The Helsinki CT score's predictive capability for these outcomes was evident in both the short term (OR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.08-1.71, p = 0.009) and long term (OR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.01-1.67, p = 0.041). The area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curves was 0.743 (p < 0.001) for the short term and 0.686 (p < 0.001) for the long term. In conclusions, the Helsinki CT score holds considerable prognostic value following primary DC for TBI. Our findings suggest that the size of the mass lesion is not the predominant factor in prognostic judgments after primary DC, nor does it reduce the Helsinki score's utility.

原发性减压开颅术(DC)是在切除创伤性脑损伤(TBI)造成的肿块病灶的同时进行的。赫尔辛基计算机断层扫描(CT)评分可预测创伤性脑损伤后的预后,其部分依据是肿块病灶的大小。目前还不清楚这一评分系统是否适用于这一亚群并具有鉴别能力。本研究试图验证赫尔辛基 CT 评分在接受初级 DC 治疗的 TBI 患者中的预后价值。在这项回顾性分析中,我们对 187 名接受初级 DC 治疗的创伤性脑损伤患者进行了评估。短期结果在出院时确定,包括所有参与者(N = 187),而长期结果则通过至少 12 个月的随访或直到患者死亡来确定(N = 162)。格拉斯哥结果量表(GOS)1-3分表示不良结果。赫尔辛基 CT 得分越高,不良预后越严重。赫尔辛基 CT 评分对这些结果的预测能力在短期(OR:1.36,95% CI:1.08-1.71,p = 0.009)和长期(OR:1.30,95% CI:1.01-1.67,p = 0.041)都很明显。受试者操作特征曲线下的面积为 0.743(p

期刊介绍: The goal of Neurosurgical Review is to provide a forum for comprehensive reviews on current issues in neurosurgery. Each issue contains up to three reviews, reflecting all important aspects of one topic (a disease or a surgical approach). Comments by a panel of experts within the same issue complete the topic. By providing comprehensive coverage of one topic per issue, Neurosurgical Review combines the topicality of professional journals with the indepth treatment of a monograph. Original papers of high quality are also welcome.
