  • Title: [Results of surgery in acute subdural hematoma].
    Author: Piotrowski WP, Mühl BJ.
    Journal: Unfallchirurg; 1995 Aug; 98(8):432-6. PubMed ID: 7570036.
    Abstract:
    In a retrospective study the prognosis of acute subdural hematoma was considered with reference to the data of 255 patients who underwent surgery because of acute subdural hematoma during a period of 10 years in the Department of Neurosurgery of the Landesnervenklinik in Salzburg. The mortality rate was 43.5%, and 21.6% had a full functional recovery. The findings of the study confirm that the preoperative neurological condition, the age, the kind of accident sustained and the extent of concomitant brain injury influence on the prognosis decisively.
