Subdural empyema is a distinct clinical entity not uncommon in Ceylon. Forty‐seven cases have been analysed. The commonest sources of infection are otitis media and frontal sinusitis. These empyemas are often complicated by cortical thrombophlebitis, meningitis and intracerebral abscesses.

Archives of Neurology, 1973
The present case report plus the literature provide ten examples of this disorder. Common to the majority are (1) a history of preceding or concurrent bacterial infection, (2) the absence of vertebral percussion tenderness, (3) varying degrees of slowly evolving neurological deficit, and (4) cerebrospinal fluid and myelographic abnormalities compatible

Subdural empyema represents loculated infection between the outermost layer of the meninges, the dura, and the arachnoid. The empyema may develop intracranially or in the spinal canal. Intracranial subdural empyema is most frequently a complication of sinusitis or, less frequently, otitis or neurosurgical procedures. Spinal subdural empyema is rare and

A review of the literature reveals that most chronic subdural empyemas occur within four to six months of the initial insult. It appears that only 1 case of a chronic subdural empyema, which occurred four years after extensive facial trauma, has been described.

Giant calcified subdural empyemas
Surgical Neurology, 1994We report two cases of chronic calcified and ossified subdural empyema diagnosed during surgery and operated on successfully using an extraordinary large osteoplastic craniotomy. After surveying the literature, we must emphasize the unusual occurrence of the chronic subdural empyemas presenting with calcification-ossification and large size as observed

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 1995
Despite the availability of new broad-spectrum antibiotics, sinusitis occasionally causes significant morbidity and mortality. One serious complication of paranasal sinusitis is subdural empyema, a fulminating intracranial disease that is invariably fatal if not treated.

In children, epidural and/or subdural intracranial empyema can complicate frontal sinusitis or pansinusitis. The standard transcranial approach used to treat epidural or subdural empyema has many drawbacks, but these can be avoided with an endoscopic ...

Infratentorial subdural empyema.
Turkish neurosurgery, 2009Infratentorial subdural empyema is a life-threatening rare complication of bacterial meningitis. Infratentorial subdural empyemas constitute only a small portion of all cases with intracranial infectious diseases. We present a 15-year-old boy with infratentorial subdural empyema.

The subdural empyema is a severe inflammatory cerebral affection and shows some diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Extracerebral infections especially in the rhinogenous and otogenic region represent the most frequent cause of the subdural empyema. Seven cases, treated between 1982 and 1986 in our department, are the base to discuss the problems of ...
