Clinical Trial: Predictors of Clinical and Neurological Outcome in Traumatic Posterior Fossa Epidural Hematoma

U.S., Feb. 27 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06847516) titled 'Predictors of Clinical and Neurological Outcome in Traumatic Posterior Fossa Epidural Hematoma' on Feb. 21.

Brief Summary: The posterior fossa is a small space in the skull containing the brainstem and cerebellum. If a mass such as a hemorrhage grows in this region, particularly the brainstem and 4th ventricle, it can block the normal flow of cerebral spinal fluid leading to hydrocephalus, increased intracranial pressure.Posterior fossa extradural hematoma (PFEDH) is a rare neurosurgical entity, resulting in rapid clinical deterioration. The accumulation of blood in a potentially small space between the dura and occipital bone cause...
