Abstract：Objective To investigate the curative effects of endoscopic neurosurgery combined with semiconductor laser on intracranial arachnoid cyst (IAC). Methods The patients with intracranial arachnoid cyst were treated by adopting simple endoscopic neurosurgery, admoving optical fiber transits porous channel to the diseased region and selecting adequate output power for operative procedure such as coagulate and hematischesis (5-12W) ,gasification and incision(15-30W). Results After 6 to 24 months,48 cases have been followed up. Through head CT/MRI dynamic observation, 45 cases with intracerebral cysts get satisfiable operative effectiveness, were improved distinctly, but 3 cases ware no effective. After operation, I case of epidural hematoma and 2 cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage supervened, no infection, no cardio-pulmonary function abnormity and other complications. All effective rate is 93.75%. Conclusion It is safe and effective for endoscopic neurosurgery combined with semiconductor laser to treat intracranial arachnoid cyst and has less trauma and less complications.
