Management of Chronic Subdural Hematoma in Patients with Intractable Thrombocytopenia

Abstract


Currently, the platelet count threshold for platelet transfusion, that is commonly used prior to surgical evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH), is 100,000 per microliter. This study was done to show the outcome of the surgical evacuation of CSDH in patients with intractable thrombocytopenia (platelet count which did not reach 100,000 per microliter after platelet transfusions).
