Abstract

A 44-year-old male patient was admitted with the complaints of persistent headaches and physical debility. He was diagnosed as having chronic subdural hematoma. The hematoma drainage was performed with only one burr-hole Acute subdural hematoma, more than 2 cm thickness was determined in the contralateral side by the ongoing complaints of pain after 2nd day of surgery. This hematoma was urgently evacuated by craniotomy. Although it is possible to reveal this rare potential complications by computerized tomography in early post operative period (within first 12 hours), the authors emphasized the importance of such a rare complication in the early postoperative period.

Özet

İnatçı baş ağrısı ve halsizlik yakınması ile başvuran 44 yaşındaki erkek olguda kronik subdural hematom tanısı konuldu. Hematomun tek burr hole ile drenajı sağlanıp, subdural mesafeye negatif basınç oluşturmayacak şekilde dren yerleştirildi. Ameliyat sonrası 2. gününde artarak devam eden baş ağrısı şikayeti oluşması üzerine olguda karşı tarafta kalınlığı 2 cm'i geçen akut subdural hematom oluştuğu belirlendi. Olgunun akut gelişen subdural hematomu acil olarak kraniyotomi ile boşaltıldı. Post operatif erken dönemde (ilk 12 saat içinde) bilgisayarlı tomografi ile, oluşması mümkün olabilecek nadir görülen komplikasyonları tanımlayabilmek mümkündür. Bununla birlikte, bu yazıda böyle nadir bir komplikasyonun erken dönemde belirlenmesinin önemi ve oluşumuna engel olmanın yolları vurgulanmıştır.
