Stereotactic aspiration

Stereotactic suction surgery is a method of using a stereotactic instrument to locate, drill holes, and put a pipette into the brain to suck the hematoma in the brain. Hematoma aspiration methods can be performed by hand aspiration with an empty syringe (only the liquefied part of the hematoma can be aspirated) and Archimedes and CUSA for aspirating hematoma. Because the burden of this method is relatively light, it is suitable for patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage who are old and have a lot of complications. However, because it is a stereotactic surgery, it requires special equipment and specialized technology such as stereotactic instrument and CUSA or Archimedes drill.
