Abstract
Ten cases of chronic epidural haematoma diagnosed between March 1988 and December 1996 are reported. There were eight males and two females ranging in age from 12–48 years. The interval between head injury and the time of diagnosis ranged from 13 days to 3 months with a mean duration of 28 days. There was no mortality or morbidity in this series. The features of chronic epidural haematoma including patient characteristics, time to diagnosis, incidents, pathophysiology, computerized tomographic (CT) scan findings, operative findings, treatment and prognosis are discussed and reviewed in conjunction with the literature.
