A Study to Evaluate Endoscope-assisted, Minimally-invasive Cortical Access System for Chronic Subdural Evacuation

October 8, 2023 updated by: Jamie J. Van Gompel, Mayo Clinic

A Pilot Study of Endoscope-assisted, Minimally-invasive Cortical Access System (MICAS) for Chronic Subdural Evacuation

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a less-invasive alternative to the currently available method of removing aging blood in the subdural space.
