Aim: Postoperative head computed tomography (POCT) is routinely performed in numerous medical institutions, mainly to identify possible postsurgical complications. This study sought to assess the clinical appropriateness of POCT in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients after ruptured or unruptured aneurysm clipping. Methods: This is a retrospective multicenter study involving microsurgical procedures of ruptured (RA) and unruptured intracranial aneurysm (UA) surgeries performed in the Centers associated with the Pomeranian Department of the Polish Society of Neurosurgeons. A database of surgical procedures of intracranial aneurysms from 2017 to 2020 was created. Only patients after a CT scan within 24 h were included. Results: A total of 423 cases met the inclusion criteria for the analysis. Age was the only significant factor associated with postoperative blood occurrence on POCT. A total of 37 (8.75%) cases of deterioration within 24 h with urgent POCT were noted, 3 (8.1%) required recraniotomy. The highest number necessary to predict (NNP) one recraniotomy based on patient deterioration was 50 in the RA group. Conclusion: We do not recommend POCTs in asymptomatic patients after planned clipping. New symptom onset requires radiological evaluation. Simultaneous practice of POCT after ruptured aneurysm treatment within 24 h is recommended. |
