Abstract

Spontaneous intracerebral haematoma (ICH) is an extremely unusual complication following the evacuation of a chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH). Good outcome is expected after the drainage of the CSDH and neurological deterioration is a cause for serious concern. Authors report three cases of spontaneous ICH away from the site of surgery following evacuation of a CSDH with a review of literature. Changes in cortical blood flow following decompression of a long standing CSDH may be responsible for the ICH.
