Revolutionizing Treatment for Chronic Subdural Hematoma: Promising Outcomes With Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization.

Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a common condition that typically requires surgical intervention. Middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) has emerged as a potential alternative treatment option, although the choice of embolization material remains a topic of debate. In this case series, we report on the outcomes of 10 patients with cSDH who underwent MMAE. Most patients experienced symptom relief and a significant reduction in cSDH size post-procedure. Despite the presence of comorbidities and risk factors, most patients had positive outcomes following MMAE treatment. Only one patient required surgical intervention after the MMAE procedure due to the progression of symptoms, while MMAE successfully prevented recurrence in most patients. Our findings suggest that MMAE can be a promising treatment option for selected patients with cSDH. However, further studies are needed to compare the efficacy and safety of different embolization materials in MMAE procedures for cSDHs.
