Abstract Purpose: Subdural hematoma (SDH) is a common pathology found in neurosurgery. Infected SDH, however, is less common, and reports have typically identified Escherichia coli as the causative organism. Case Report: We present here a case of an infected chronic SDH caused by Streptococcus mitis, likely for the first time, following a burn injury in a 40-year-old male patient. Conclusion: The workup for infected SDH should now include S. mitis as a possible culprit.
