A case of interhemispheric subdural hematoma ( ISH ) is presented and discussed. This disorder is a rare form of intracranial hemorrhage, which classically presents as an isolated paresis of one leg or a hemiparesis worse in the leg than the arm. The majority of cases are due to occipital trauma because of the anatomy of the bridging veins. Chronic interhemispheric hematomas are rare since the natural history of these lesions is to spread out over the cerebral convexity. Conservative treatment for ISH may be beneficial unless neurological deterioration necessitates early operative intervention.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
