Intracranial subdural empyema mimicking a recurrent chronic subdural hematoma
Intracranial subdural empyema (ISDE) is a life-threatening condition. The risk for ISDE increases in patients that have undergone prior intracranial procedures. The non-specificity in its clinical presentation often makes ISDE difficult to diagnose. Here, we present a rare case of ISDE mimicking a recurrent chronic subdural hematoma, emphasizing the significance of obtaining early magnetic reso...

Clinically, it is characterized by symptoms which appear, after a variable latent period, following cerebral trauma. Marked physical debility aand psychopathic changes may ensue, and it is only the comparatively recent understanding...
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...
