Figure 5 Brain computed tomography (CT) scans of a successful case of hematoma removal using single-catheter insertion in neuronavigation-assisted stereotactic aspiration and thrombolysis surgery(A) Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage of 15 mL in the right basal ganglia with the spot sign on the initial CT angiography scan. (B) Marked volume enlargement on the follow-up CT scan (57 mL). (C) Remarkable decrease in the hematoma volume after single-catheter insertion on the postoperative CT scan. (D) Approximately 80% of the hematoma had been removed as a result of tissue plasminogen activator administration on the follow-up CT scan 2 days after surgery. The figure was created by the author from the PACS database of our institution using FastStone capture 9.0 (FastStone Soft).
