  • Title: [Bilateral traumatic subdural hematomas].
    Author: Pedachenko GA, Kumar BA.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1990; (3):6-9. PubMed ID: 2168657.
    Abstract:
    The authors studied 57 verified cases of bilateral traumatic subdural hematomas (BTSH) 36 of which were acute, 4 subacute, and 17 chronic. The patient's ages ranged from 15 to 84 years. The clinical picture of BTSH is made up of general cerebral, primary-focal, and dislocation symptoms. Computerized tomography, serial cerebral angiography, and trephinations formed on both sides help in detection of BTSH. Simultaneous opening of the dura mater on both sides with slow evacuation of the contents of the hematomas is an important stage of surgical intervention in BTSH.
