BACKGROUND Delayed acute subdural hematoma (DASH) is a subdural hematoma which is detected later. An initial computed tomography (CT) does not reveal any intracranial hemorrhage at all. Few patients of DASH after mild traumatic brain injury associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have been published. PATIENT PRESENTATION A 63-year-old woman presented with cardiac pulmonary ar...

We report the case of 22-year-old man with nontraumatic intracystic hemorrhage into a middle cranial fossa arachnoid cyst associated with a contiguous subacute subdural hematoma. Arachnoid cysts are benign intra-arachnoidal fluid collections frequently detected incidentally during neuroimaging. Rare complications of arachnoid cysts such as intracystic hemorrhage or subdural hematomas and subdur...

Originally, all acute subdural hematomas were thought to be hyperdense with respect to brain on CT (1 ). But over the last 1 0-15 years, cases of acute isodense subdural and epidural hematomas have been reported [2-6). Although contrast-enhanced CT has aided in the visualization of chronic isodense subdural hematomas [7), the use of contrast material was not efficacious in two of the acute isod...

Thirty-four consecutive adult patients with subdural traumatic hygroma were analysed for clinical evolution, serial computed tomography scan (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) over a period of several months. Five of the patients presented CT scan and MRI evolution data showing increasing density over a period of 11 days to 6 months post trauma. In these five patients, final clinical an...
