By comparing the data of CSDH patients and control individuals, it was found that the inflammatory markers of CSDH patients were significantly higher than those of the control group. After being cured, the number of inflammatory cells in patients decreased, suggesting the existence of a non-hematologic route for hematoma absorption.
Background Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common neurosurgical disease with an increasing incidence. The absorption route of CSDH is not clear. Whether inflammatory factors enter the peripheral blood and cause systemic reactions is unknown. Methods We screened 105 CSDH patients and 105 control individuals. Their clinical characteristics and blood routine results were collected and compared. The blood routine changes of CSDH patients before and after treatment were compared. Age-stratified analysis was performed due to age may affect the inflammatory markers. Results The white blood cell count, absolute neutrophil count, neutrophil percentage, neutrophil-lymphocyte count ratio (NLR), and platelet to lymphocyte count ratio (PLR) of CSDH patients before treatment were within the normal range, while were significantly higher than the control individuals (p < 0.001). The absolute lymphocyte count and lymphocyte percentage of control individuals were higher than those of patients (p < 0.001). The inflammatory cells in patients of different age groups were similar. After the patient was cured, the white blood cell count, the absolute value and percentage of neutrophils decreased (p < 0.05), while the number of monocytes increased. Conclusions CSDH caused slight systemic inflammatory responses in the peripheral blood, implying that there is a non-hematologic route for the absorption of hematoma.
