Translabyrinthine Craniotomy Is Associated with Higher Risk of Asymptomatic Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis in Vestibular Schwannoma Resection.
Otology & Neurotology 2023 September 7
OBJECTIVE: Characterize the incidence, risk factors, and patient outcomes of dural venous sinus thrombosis identified on postoperative imaging after retrosigmoid or translabyrinthine craniotomy for vestibular schwannoma resection.
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study.
SETTING: Single tertiary academic referral center.
PATIENTS: Eighty-one patients 19 to 82 years of age with vestibular schwannomas, 58% female.
INTERVENTIONS: Retrosigmoid or translabyrinthine craniotomy with postoperative magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance venography.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Association between operative approach, age, sex, body mass index, tumor size, dominant sinus, operative time, laterality, and perioperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks with rate of thrombosis.
RESULTS: Translabyrinthine craniotomy was associated with the highest relative risk of thrombosis (odds ratios [OR] = 19.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.75-224, p = 0.007), followed by male sex (OR = 5.53, 95% CI = 1.63-18.8, p = 0.035). Other patient and demographic risk factors were not associated with increased rates of dural venous thrombosis, nor was there an association with postoperative CSF leak. 81% (25/31) of thrombi had resolved within 3 years of surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: Translabyrinthine approach and male sex most strongly predicted postoperative dural venous thrombosis after postauricular craniotomy for vestibular schwannoma resection.
PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE GAP AND EDUCATIONAL NEED: Better understanding of risk factors and management of dural venous thrombosis after vestibular schwannoma surgery.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Characterize clinically significant risk factors for dural venous thrombosis in vestibular schwannoma surgery.
DESIRED RESULT: Identification of patient and operative risk factors for dural venous thrombosis.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.
INDICATE IRB OR IACUC: Exempt.
