Abstract
(1) Background: In this study, epidemiological, clinical, therapeutical, and haemostaseological variables were investigated regarding their correlation with the recurrence of chronic subdural haematomas to assess the risk of recurrence more reliably in everyday clinical practice. (2) Methods: In our retrospective study, the electronic records of 90 patients who underwent surgery for a chronic subdural haematoma at our institute between 1 January 2017 and 31 May 2021 were analysed regarding previously defined variables. (3) Results: In the patient collective, 33.33% of the 90 patients experienced a recurrence requiring treatment. The occurrence of a recurrence was not statistically significantly related to age, gender, known alcohol abuse, a specific location, extension over one or both hemispheres, the surgical method, or anticoagulant medication. However, the recurrence was statistically significantly related to haematoma width (p = 0.000007), septation (p = 0.005), and the existence of a coagulation disorder not treated with medication (p = 0.04). (4) Conclusions: In our study, the width of the haematoma, septation, and coagulation disorders not treated with medication were documented as risk factors for the occurrence of a chronic subdural haematoma. Identifying of these risk factors could help in adapting individual therapeutic concepts for chronic subdural haematomas.
