Subdural hygroma, a subdural fluid collection, can rapidly increase in volume, as seen in an elderly patient. Dehydration may trigger this condition, highlighting the need for serial CT scans to guide treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Pathophysiology

Background:

  • Subdural hygroma is a collection of cerebrospinal fluid-like fluid in the subdural space.
  • Its etiology and pathophysiology may differ from other subdural fluid collections.

Observation:

  • A case of an 80-year-old woman with bilateral frontal subdural hygroma is presented.
  • Serial CT scans revealed a rapid increase in hygroma volume after two years of slow progression.

Findings:

  • Dehydration was identified as a potential triggering factor in this patient.
  • The natural course of non-traumatic subdural hygroma is not well-documented.

Implications:

  • Subdural hygromas can exhibit rapid and dramatic volumetric changes.

  • Repeated CT imaging is crucial for informed therapeutic decisions in managing subdural hygromas.
