What is the treatment for hematoma on the right side of the brain?
Patient: Right now after doing ct scan,MRI and angiography i am diagnos having 10 by 10 cm hematoma at my right brain. Then my doctor said i need to do major operation at my right brain. But there s a risk that my left brain might be affected. Its not cleared to me right now what are the possible risk of my operation if ever i said yes to do the operation. And if i didnt want to do the operation what will happen to me? Please help me doing the right decision. Doctor: Surgical decision depends on size, site, duration of haematoma and cause of haematoma.  Please mention your age and vascular risk factors.  Also mention MRA  findings. If there is underlying AVM or aneurysm it must be operated. Considering right brain involvement,  which is a non dominant hemisphere neurodeficit will be minimalHope my advice will help you.  Take care. Don't forget to rate me.
