This report describes the case of a 42-year-old man who presented with decreased consciousness following intermittent headaches following minor head trauma. Computed tomography imaging revealed an AEDH, prompting surgical intervention. Despite preliminary assumptions linking the causes of the trauma, surgical exploration revealed no evidence of traumatic injury. Instead, an infiltrative soft-tissue mass within the skull was identified. Histopathological examination confirmed that the mass was a metastatic HCC. Despite the successful hematoma evacuation, the patient's neurological status did not improve. This case underscores the importance of considering metastatic disease in the differential diagnosis of AEDH, particularly in patients with a history of malignant tumors, irrespective of prior indications of bone metastasis. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need to enhance diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for such complex cases.","PeriodicalId":36879,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Neurotrauma","volume":"19 3","pages":"384-392"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/2f/37/kjn-19-384.PMC10567519.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41239534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Surgical treatment options vary; however, predicting edema aggravation is crucial when choosing the optimal approach. We propose using the sphericity index, a measure of roundness, to predict the aggravation of edema and guide surgical decisions.Methods: We analyzed 56 cases of craniotomy and hematoma evacuation to investigate the correlation between the sphericity index and patient outcomes, including the need for salvage decompressive craniectomy (DC).Results: The patients included 35 (62.5%) men and 21 (37.5%) women, with a median age of 62.5 years. The basal ganglia was the most common location of hemorrhage (50.0%). The mean hematoma volume was 86.3 cc, with 10 (17.9%) instances of hematoma expansion. Cerebral herniation was observed in 44 (78.6%) patients, intraventricular hemorrhage in 34 (60.7%), and spot signs in 9 (16.1%). Salvage DC was performed in 13 (23.6%) patients to relieve intracranial pressure. The median follow-up duration was 6 months, with a mortality rate of 12.5%. The sphericity index was significantly correlated with delayed swelling and hematoma expansion but not salvage DC.Conclusions: The sphericity index is a promising predictor of delayed swelling and hematoma expansion that may aid in the development of surgical guidelines and medication strategies. Further large-scale studies are required to explore these aspects and establish comprehensive guidelines.","PeriodicalId":36879,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Neurotrauma","volume":"19 3","pages":"333-347"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/8c/dc/kjn-19-333.PMC10567521.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41239533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These injuries can damage small or large parts of the brain, are life-threatening, and require emergency care. This study is a summary of penetrating head injuries at our hospital and an analysis of their treatments and prognoses.Methods: Patients with penetrating brain involving the orbit and/or cranial region were recruited among patients with trauma who visited our regional trauma center between 2019 and 2022.Results: Eight patients with penetrating brain injuries were enrolled. One patient was female; the median age was 53 years (range, 24-72 years). Five patients with Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores of 14 or 15 showed no major vessel injury or midline intracranial involvement on imaging and were discharged safely. The other three patients with suspected major vessel injuries and midline involvement did not survive.Conclusion: The greatest influences on patient prognosis were the area of damage and level of consciousness, along with the GCS score at the time of the visit. The probability of survival is extremely low if the midline structure is damaged.","PeriodicalId":36879,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Neurotrauma","volume":"19 3","pages":"314-323"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/2c/79/kjn-19-314.PMC10567535.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41239532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
