Vascular - Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization for Chronic Subdural Hematoma Management


Listen Later

This episode delves into the emerging therapeutic landscape for chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH), focusing on the combined approach of middle meningeal artery embolization and subdural evacuation port system (MMAE-SEPS) drainage. Drawing from a systematic review, single-arm meta-analysis, meta-regression, and cost-benefit analysis published in Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery in 2026, this abstract review examines the safety, efficacy, and economic implications of this minimally invasive strategy. The discussion highlights findings in a population of older, medically frail patients at risk for recurrence and perioperative complications. The clinical implications for reducing cSDH recurrence and improving patient outcomes are explored.
