Fig. 5From: Surgery for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhageSurgical trajectories of catheter insertion in minimally invasive surgery. This figure was adapted from previously published images by Fam et al. [49]. a Basal ganglia hemorrhage (caudate, putamen, or anterior capsule). The catheter is inserted through the forehead. Catheter trajectory: along the clot longitudinal axis. b Thalamic or posterior capsular hemorrhage. The catheter is inserted through the parietal-occipital area. Catheter trajectory: along the clot longitudinal axis. c Lobar hemorrhage. The catheter is inserted through the superficial area contiguous to the clot. Catheter trajectory: along the clot widest axisBack to article page
