    Traumatic arterial subdural hematomas are rare but deadly. A missed diagnosis on initial CT scans highlights the need for vigilance, as a patient later developed severe hematomas.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurotrauma
    • Neuroradiology
    • Surgical Neurology

    Background:

    • Traumatic acute arterial subdural hematomas are infrequently encountered but carry a significant mortality risk.
    • Prompt diagnosis and intervention are critical for managing intracranial hemorrhages.

    Observation:

    • An initial computed tomographic (CT) scan failed to identify an arterial subdural hematoma in a trauma patient.
    • The patient experienced sudden neurological deterioration with bilaterally dilated, unreactive pupils hours after initial imaging.

    Findings:

    • A subsequent CT scan revealed extensive subdural and intracerebral hematomas that were not apparent on the initial examination.
    • This case underscores the potential for delayed or evolving intracranial pathology following traumatic injury.

    Implications:

    • The findings emphasize the importance of serial neurological assessments and repeat imaging in cases of suspected traumatic brain injury with evolving symptoms.
    • This case highlights diagnostic challenges in acute neurotrauma and the need for heightened clinical suspicion for rapidly developing hematomas.
