Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) has been a major part of traumatic brain injury (TBI). It is a common clinical entity for the neurosurgeons and usually results in a poor prognosis. ASDH is easily diagnosed on the brain computed tomography (CT) as extra-axial hyperdense crescent mass between the dura and the brain parenchyma.

An acute subdural hematoma (SDH) is a clot of blood that develops between the surface of the brain and the dura mater, the brain’s tough outer covering, usually due to stretching and tearing of veins on the brain’s surface. These veins rupture when a …

Subdural hemorrhage/hematoma (SDH) is a collection of blood accumulating in the subdural space. Subdural hemorrhage can happen in any age group, is mainly due to head trauma and CT scans are usually sufficient to make the diagnosis. Prognosis varies widely depending on the size and chronicity of the hemorrhage.

Subdural hematoma (SDH) is a form of intracranial hemorrhage characterized by bleeding into the space between the dural and arachnoid membranes surrounding the brain. The management …

2023年8月12日 · Clots that contain relatively intact blood cells without significant differentiation nor evidence of lysis are acute. Once the subdural clot organizes with fibrin, macrophages laden with hemosiderin and red blood cells and lysed red blood cells in the center, the clot is subacute.

Subdural hematomas (SDHs) can be divided into three groups based on chronology: acute, subacute, and chronic. A subacute SDH (saSDH) is defined as a hematoma that evolves from an acute SDH within 4 to 21 days of head injury.

2023年3月2日 · Subdural hematoma (SDH) is a type of intracranial hemorrhage characterized by bleeding that occurs between the dural and arachnoid membranes surrounding the brain. Trauma is the most common cause of SDH. Acute SDH commonly results from tearing of bridging veins in the subdural space.

2013年12月21日 · Clinical presentation, neurologic condition, and imaging findings are the key components in establishing a treatment plan for acute SDH. Location and size of the SDH and presence of midline shift can rapidly be determined by computed tomography of the head. Immediate laboratory work up must include PT, PTT, INR, and platelet count.

Clinical presentation, neurologic condition, and imaging findings are the key components in establishing a treatment plan for acute SDH. Location and size of the SDH and presence of midline shift can rapidly be determined by computed tomography of the head.

Indications for surgery: An acute subdural hematoma (SDH) with a thickness greater than 10 mm or a midline shift greater than 5 mm on computed tomographic (CT) scan should be surgically evacuated, regardless of the patient's Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score.
