Interhemispheric subdural hematoma

Area of Science:

• Neurosurgery
• Neurology
• Radiology

Background:

• Primary interhemispheric subdural hematoma is a rare condition.
• Diagnosis and surgical management are critical for patient outcomes.

Observation:

• A case of primary interhemispheric subdural hematoma is presented.
• Limb weakness disproportionate to the face and arm suggested lesion localization.

Findings:

• Successful surgical removal of the hematoma was achieved.
• Computed tomography (CT) is a key diagnostic tool.
• Carotid angiography is essential for ruling out vascular lesions.

Implications:

• Early identification of subtle neurological signs can aid in diagnosis.
• Multimodality imaging is crucial for comprehensive evaluation.
• Prompt surgical intervention can lead to favorable outcomes.
