Chronic Subdural Hematomas: Comparison between Unilateral and Bilateral Involvement
OBJECTIVE Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common intracranial hemorrhage, encountered in neurosurgical practice. Most CSDHs are unilateral, but some show bilateral involvement. However, the clinical characteristics of bilateral CSDH remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the clinical differences between bilateral and unilateral CSDH. METHODS A retrospective study was performed o...
متن کاملChronic Subdural Hematomas Associated with Arachnoid Cysts: Significance in Young Patients with Chronic Subdural Hematomas
Although arachnoid cysts (ACs) are associated with chronic subdural hematomas (CSDHs), especially in young patients, the detailed features of CSDHs associated with ACs remain poorly understood. The objective of this study was to clarify the relationship between the location of CSDHs and ACs and the significance of ACs in young patients with CSDHs. We retrospectively assessed 605 consecutive pat...
متن کاملEnhanced acetylcholinesterase in chronic subdural hematomas.
Hematomas and specimens were studied from 13 surgically-operated chronic subdural hematoma cases. Evacuated hematomas contained elevated potassium ions and slightly increased levels of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and the dural specimens including hematoma capsules stained positive for AChE using histochemical methods, especially in the inner membrane of the dura where the Masson Trichrome stai...
متن کاملBilateral subdural hematomas caused by spontaneous intracranial hypotension.
Patients with both spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) and subdural hematomas (SDH) are frequently undiagnosed. SIH may recur very often over a short interval or result in disastrous consequences if only the SDH is dealt with. We report a young adult with severe posterior nuchal pain; brain computed tomography showed bilateral SDH. He was discharged smoothly without any neurologic defici...
متن کاملPostoperative Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Multipunctate Intracerebral Hemorrhages Following Evacuation of Bilateral Chronic Subdural Hematomas
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) can be easily treated by burr hole surgery. However, several complications including intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and acute subdural hematoma are rare after evacuation of a CSDH. A 77-year-old man was admitted with right hemiparesis and dysarthria. A brain computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a bilateral CSDH with midline shif...
