Chronic Subdural Subtentorial Hematoma
Case I. Robert M. was 4 years old when first seen at the Children's Hospital of Michigan because of headache, drowsiness, vomiting, and unsteadiness on his feet of 6 weeks' duration. He had been delivered with forceps after a long difficult labor. He still carried prominent forceps markings behind each ear and a deep scar over the occiput. During the first few months of life he developed a mark...
متن کاملMidline shift in relation to thickness of traumatic acute subdural hematoma predicts mortality
BACKGROUND Traumatic acute subdural hematoma has a high mortality despite intensive treatment. Despite the existence of several prediction models, it is very hard to predict an outcome. We investigated whether a specific combination of initial head CT-scan findings is a factor in predicting outcome, especially non-survival. METHODS We retrospectively studied admission head CT scans of all adu...
متن کاملChronic Subdural Hematoma
Chronic subdural hematoma may be defined as hematoma within the subdural space, limited by a fibrous envelope and covered on the arachnoidal surface by mesothelium. Clinically, it is characterized by symptoms which appear, after a variable latent period, following cerebral trauma. Marked physical debility aand psychopathic changes may ensue, and it is only the comparatively recent understanding...
متن کاملSpontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Manifesting as a Unilateral Subdural Hematoma with a Marked Midline Shift
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a syndrome in which hypovolemia of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) results in various symptoms. Although its prognosis is usually benign, cases with a rapid neurologic deterioration resulting in an altered mental status have been reported. One of the characteristic radiographic findings in such cases is the presence of bilateral accumulation of subdur...
متن کاملTractography of persistent ipsilateral hemiparesis following subdural hematoma.
lesion or by secondary damage to the cerebral peduncle contralateral to the lesion, a so-called Kernohan-Woltman notch phenomenon (KWNP). A possible mechanism of ipsilateral hemiparesis is that morphological changes in the brainstem associated with KWNP are accompanied by irreversible damage to the adjacent corticospinal tract (CST).1-3 A few reports dealing with the acute and sub-acute stages ...
