Abstract
Chronic subdural hematoma is a common intracranial disease in elderly individuals, but in very rare cases, it can also develop in children. Some subdural hematomas are prone to misdiagnosis as epidural hematomas, which can affect the surgical approach and patient prognosis. We report a case of a 12-year-old male child with a misdiagnosed subdural hematoma as an epidural hematoma. We reviewed the data of this misdiagnosed patient with chronic subdural hematoma, analyzed relevant imaging information, identified the reasons for misdiagnosis, and summarized our experience to enhance our understanding of this condition.
