Remote intracranial hemorrhages after craniotomy or craniectomy may rarely develop. As the sparse literature on this phenomenon has focused on contralateral intraparenchymal and epidural clots, only seven cases of postoperative contralateral acute subdural hematomas have been reported in the literature. We presented two patients who developed contralateral acute subdural hematomas after surgica...

Acute subdural hematoma is usually a neurological emergency that requires hematoma evacuation or close observation. However, spontaneous resolutions of an acute subdural hematoma without surgical interventions have been reported rarely. We report on a case who showed rapid resolution of an acute subdural hematoma with neurological improvement and review the relevant literatures.

SHIMADA, Y., KASUKAWA, Y., MIYAKOSHI, N., HONGO, M., ANDO, S. and ITOI, E. Chronic Subdural Hematoma Coexisting with Ligamentum Flavum Hematoma in the Lumbar Spine: A Case Report. Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 2006, 210 (1), 83-89 ── We present a case of a chronic spinal subdural hematoma combined with a ligamentum flavum hematoma in the lumbar spine treated surgically. An 83-year-old woman receiving an...

Hematogenous dissemination from a localized infection to a previous existing subdural hematoma is an extremely rare cause of subdural empyema which is termed infected subdural hematoma. We reported a 5-month-old male infant suffered from infected subdural hematoma by Escherichia coli (E. coli). In this patient, urinary tract infection was the most favorable origin from which seed the organism t...

purpose: in this report a patient with concomitant axenfeld-rieger syndrome and glaucoma is presented. results: new symptoms of a recent traumatic subdural hematoma were being attributed to his previously diagnosed conditions for several months. conclusion: appropriate imaging saved the patient from more dangerous complications.

Chronic subdural hematomas often occurs in late middle and old age following trivial head trauma. Surgical intervention is the first treatment option in chronic subdural hematomas which compressed the cerebral parenchym. Hematoma may be calcified or ossified in untreated patients. Spontaneous resolution of post-traumatic chronic subdural hematoma is a rare event. Spontaneous resolution is rarer...

BACKGROUND Chronic subdural hematoma generally occurs in the elderly. After chronic subdural hematoma evacuation surgery, the development of epidural hematoma is a very rare entity. CASE REPORT We report the case of a 41-year-old man with an epidural hematoma complication after chronic subdural hematoma evacuation. Under general anesthesia, the patient underwent a large craniotomy with closed...

The incidence of subdural hematoma is approximately 13.1/100.000 per year. Subdural hematoma due to skull and dura mater metastases is rare. In this study, a 71-year-old patient with prostate adenocarcinoma who presented with chronic subdural hematoma due to skull bone and dura mater metastasis is presented.

Objective Chronic subdural hematoma is a common and relatively benign disease. However, recurrence is common after surgical treatment, and the recurrence rate varies from 5% to 33%. The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive factors for recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma. Methods We analyzed data from 248 patients with chronic subdural hematoma who were treated by burr-hole ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Subdural hematoma is a known complication of long-term hemodialysis. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, AND MEASUREMENTS The US Renal Data System was used to determine the occurrence rate of nontraumatic subdural hematoma in long-term dialysis patients and to evaluate time trends. RESULTS The occurrence rate of subdural hematoma in long-term dialysis patients is 10 tim...
