Abstract
AbstractAcute subdural hematoma (SDH) constitutes one of the most common emergencies in neurosurgery and its spontaneous resolution is an uncommon phenomenon. Several theories have been described to explain this phenomenon including redistribution of subdural blood, dilution by cerebrospinal fluid, and brain atrophy. Rapid resolution of acute SDH related to thrombocytopenia is a rare phenomenon. We report a case of a patient who showed rapid resolution of acute SDH with thrombocytopenia and also discuss such a rare case with speculation of the thrombocytopenia as a factor to promote this phenomenon.
