Geniþ kronik subdural hematomun spontan rezolüsyonu: Olgu sunumu ve literatürün gözden geçirilmesi

Kronik subdural hematomun spontan rezolüsyonu literatürde nadir olarak bildirilmektedir. Bu yazýda, otuz beþ yaþýndaki bir erkek olgunun manyetik rezonans görüntüleme incelemesinde hacmi yaklaþýk olarak 76,5 ml ölçülen geniþ bir kronik subdural hematomun spontan rezolüsyonu sunuldu. Hastanýn nörolojik incelemesinde patolojik bulguya rastlanmadý, serebral anjiyografi ve EEG incelemeleri normal bulundu. Kronik subdural hematomlarýn fizyopatogenezindeki olasý mekanizmalar, spontan rezolüsyonu diðer literatür bilgileri eþliðinde tartýþýldý.

Spontaneous resolution of a large chronic subdural hematoma: a case report and review of the literature

Spontaneous resolution of a chronic subdural hematoma has been reported rarely in the literature. We present herein the case of a 35-year-old patient with spontaneous resolution of a large chronic subdural hematoma, the volume of which was measured as approximately 76.5 ml on magnetic resonance imaging. No pathology was determined on neurological examination. Neither cerebral angiography nor EEG showed any abnormality. We discuss the possible relation between mechanisms of physio-pathogenesis and spontaneous resolution of chronic subdural hematomas, and also present the patient characteristics together with the other literature data.
