Acute vertex epidural hematoma
Epidural hematomas (EDH) are often located at the cerebral hemisphere convexities or the posterior fossa often following trauma. The offending source of bleeding in a majority of EDHs is secondary to arterial, venous, or bony vascular channel compromise.[4] EHD located on the vertex cerebrum (vEDH) are relatively uncommon, however, may be associated with significant morbidity and mortality if n...
متن کاملAcute posttraumatic paraplegia caused by epidural hematoma at the vertex.
Vertex epidural hematomas (VEDHs) are well known but uncommon. Their clinical presentation may be misleading and missed by routine CT axial scanning; thus, diagnosis may be delayed, with possibly fatal consequences. We report a case of acute posttraumatic paraplegia caused by a VEDH, which was evident at CT and for which the patient underwent successful surgery.
متن کاملAcute Epidural Hematoma after Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Insertion: a Case Report
Background & Importance: Acute epidural hematoma is a very rare complication of ventriculoperitoneal shunt insertion. The insertion of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt can cause sudden decompression of the brain, subsequent to which epidural hematoma occurs due to CSF drainage. To our knowledge, there are only a few cases of acute epidural hematoma in the literature which required acute e...
متن کاملAcute interdural hematoma mimicking epidural hematoma: a case report.
Intracranial hematoma rarely presents between two dural layers of pachimeninges. Here, we present a case of an interdural hematoma with similar appearance to an epidural hematoma. A 51-year-old man presented with a left temporal contusion following a motor vehicle accident. After craniotomy and contusion removal, the post-operative CT scan showed a parietal intracranial hematoma...
متن کاملAcute subdural hematoma mimicking epidural hematoma on CT.
The characteristic feature of acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) when located over the convexity is that of a hyperdense crescentic area that conforms to the underlying cerebral surface and extends over most of the subdural space. Epidural hematoma (EDH), on the other hand, adopts a biconvex shape that is fundamentally focal in nature. During a 4V2year period two of 25 operatively proven cases of A...
