Abstract

AbstractPosterior fossa epidural hematomas (EDHs) are much rarer entities than supratentorial EDHs which are reported only 4 to 7% in the literature. Due to the tight space and critical structures in posterior fossa, only a few cases can go with the conservative management but even then patients can deteriorate anytime with enlargement of hematoma and compression effects on brain stem and require urgent evacuation. This letter aims to provide a case of a young kid who presented initially with less-volume EDH and later required urgent evacuation because of hematoma expansion.
