Meta analyses in treatment of spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral haematoma

Background. None of the randomized controlled trials (RCT) on treatment of Intracerebral haematoma (ICH), definitely shows surgery to be beneficial over conservative treatment alone. Systematic reviews that pooled these RCTs were also inconclusive. This systematic review updates previous meta-analyses, using an alternative manner of reviewing with a criteria list constructed specifically for this type of disease and related interventions.
