Subdural Hematomas in Adults and Children.

Subdural hematoma is a common entity encountered by the neurosurgeon. The disease has acute, subacute, and chronic forms. Management of the disease changes according to the etiology of the lesion, yet the main goals are, as with most neurosurgical interventions, decompression of neural tissue and restoration of perfusion. Due to various forms and causes of the disease such as trauma, anticoagulant/antiaggregant use, arterial rupture, oncologic hemorrhages, intracranial hypotension, and idiopathic hemorrhages, several approaches for management have been documented in the literature. Herewith, we present various up-to-date management options for the disease.
