Abstract

Traumatic acute subdural hematoma is a life threatening situation. Spontaneous resolution of acute subdural hematoma within a few hours is seen rarely. We present a case of rapid resolution of traumatic acute subdural hematoma with resolution in 5 hours and we discuss the mechanisims related to the resolution of acute subdural hematoma.

Keywords

Travmatik akut subdural hematomun hızlı spontan rezolüsyonu

Abstract

Travmatik akut subdural hematom yaşamı tehdit eden bir durumdur. Akut subdural hematomun birkaç saat içinde spontan rezolüsyonu nadir görülür. Bu olguda travmatik akut subdural hematomun 5 saat içerisinde hızlı rezolüsyonunu ilişkili mekanizmalar eşliğinde tartışarak sunduk.
