The fate of traumatic subdural hygroma in serial computed tomographic scans.
We reviewed serial computed tomographic (CT) scans of 58 patients with traumatic subdural hygroma (SDG) to investigate its natural history. All were re-evaluated with a special reference to the size and density of SDG. Thirty-four patients (58.6%) were managed conservatively and 24 patients (41.4%) underwent surgery. The lesion was described as remained, reduced, resolved, enlarged and changed....
متن کاملAcute Traumatic Subdural Hygroma *
A complication of head injury which is similar to, but distinct from the better known entity of subdural hematoma, is that of "subdural hygroma." This term was introduced by Dandy' to describe the appearance or development of abnormal collections of fluid in the subdural space. Dandy ascribed this condition to three possible etiologies: cranial trauma with leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, mixed ...
متن کاملThe Role of Surgical Treatment in Traumatic Subdural Hygroma: A Pilot Study
Background and Aim: Traumatic subdural hygroma is the accumulation of CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) in subdural space following head trauma. The mass effect of hygroma on brain can impinge on consciousness. There are still many ambiguities on indications of hygroma surgery. This is an 11-year follow-up study which involves the patients suffering traumatic subdural hygroma who underwent surgery. Met...
متن کاملThe computed tomographic attenuation and the age of subdural hematomas.
The sequential change in density (attenuation coefficient) of subdural hematomas (SDHs) in computed tomography (CT) is important in understanding the pathogenesis and evolution of SDHs. We retrospectively investigated the age of SDHs by CT in 446 cases. We included 30 cases of chronic SDHs, in whom the density was directly measured in the CT. The density of acute (within 7 days) SDH was hyperde...
