Management of Chronic Subdural Hematoma

Contemporary Neurosurgery, 2015
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common condition in neurosurgical practice. A CSDH is defined as an “old” collection of blood and blood breakdown products in the subdural space, developing over a period of longer than 14 days. CSDH has a high prevalence, ranging from 1.72 per 100,000 in the general population to 58 per 100,000 in the elderly (≥65

Chronic Subdural Hematoma in the Elderly

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1991
Elderly individuals may develop an asymptomatic subdural hematoma as a result of minor trauma, anticoagulant therapy, or other factors. A membrane forms around the initial clot, and this membrane becomes the source for many smaller hemorrhages. Because of these rehemorrhages, the hematoma slowly enlarges with time and ultimately becomes symptomatic ...

Chronic Subdural Hematoma in Children

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2000
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSH) is generally a disease affecting the elderly and infants. In infants, the process is particularly confusing and frequently misunderstood. In the pediatric population, CSH is just one of a group of sometimes related conditions known as extracerebral fluid collections.

Spontaneous Resolution of Chronic Subdural Hematomas

Neurosurgery, 1986
Four patients with chronic subdural hematomas, all of which resolved spontaneously, were followed from the time of injury to resolution of the chronic subdural hematoma. Periodic computed tomographic (CT) scans showed spontaneous resolution 78, 174, 231, and 326 days after the development of the chronic subdural hematoma, respectively.

Coagulation and fibrinolysis in chronic subdural hematoma

Neurosurgery, 1989
In 19 patients with chronic subdural hematoma, coagulation and fibrinolysis in venous blood taken at the time of surgery and in the hematoma contents aspirated from chronic subdural hematoma were studied. Compared with coagulation results for venous blood, the hematoma contents demonstrated marked prolongation of the recalcification time, prothrombin ...

Chronic subdural hematoma

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1974
✓ A controlled clinical trial was planned to compare the effect of mannitol treatment with surgical intervention in chronic subdural hematoma. It was discontinued after the first seven patients showed no response to mannitol therapy. We recommend that operative intervention be considered the treatment of choice.

Chronic Subdural Hematoma

Neurosurgery, 1993
The management of chronic subdural hematoma in the adult patient is approached with a variety of different surgical techniques. The trend in recent years has been toward treatment with burr holes or twist-drill holes rather than craniotomy. The rationale for this has been based on the assumption that burr holes and twist-drill holes offer equivalent ...
