    Abstract:
    Subdural hematoma (SDH) is a common intracranial lesion seen in severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). The development of contralateral delayed extradural hematoma (EDH) after surgery is well described. But limited literature available about immediate contralateral EDH after subdural hematoma (SDH) evacuation. We report a case of a young adult who developed contralateral EDH following decompressive surgery for acute SDH.
