Recovery from craniotomy for cerebral hemorrhage depends on the amount of bleeding, the location of the bleeding and the individual’s physical condition.
In general, patients with less bleeding recover better, cerebral hemisphere bleeding is more than 30 ml, cerebellar hemorrhage is more than 10 ml that can be performed craniotomy hematoma removal.
The more bleeding volume, the heavier the compression of brain tissue and brain nerves caused by hematoma, and the worse the patient’s postoperative functional recovery. Superficial hemorrhage such as subcortical, nucleus pulposus and cerebellar hemorrhage have better results, while deep hemorrhage such as brain stem hemorrhage have poorer results and poorer postoperative recovery.
Timely rehabilitation is also needed to recover from craniotomy for brain hemorrhage.
It is generally believed that as long as the vital signs of patients after cerebral hemorrhage are stable and the condition does not continue to progress, they should undergo rehabilitation therapy as early as possible. Early and graded rehabilitation therapy is beneficial to the recovery of neurological function.
