    The study analyzed 122 patients with chronic subdural hematoma to assess the impact of surgical timing and duration on postoperative outcomes.

  • 2

    Surgical duration exceeding 60 minutes was associated with significantly higher postoperative Glasgow Coma Scale and Karnofsky Performance Status scores.

  • 3

    No significant differences were observed in recurrence rates, complications, or modified Rankin Scale scores between different surgical duration groups.

  • 4

    The interval from symptom onset to surgery was linked to longer hospital stays but did not significantly affect short-term outcomes.

  • 5

    Further large-scale studies are needed to validate the findings regarding surgical timing and duration's effects on chronic subdural hematoma outcomes.
