On the basis of our results, we concluded that the GG genotype of -137G/C polymorphism and IL-18 level are independent risk factors of LEDVT, and IL-18 gene polymorphism affects the level of IL-18 in LEDVT patients.

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a rare hematological malignancy. Pure subdural hemorrhages in a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia patient are extremely rare. Case presentation: This case presented acute spontaneous subdural hemorrhage without head trauma at first, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia was diagnosed later. The second time, the patient was admitted with multiple pure subdural hemorrhages in different locations and periods with a history of slight head trauma. Conclusions: Pure subdural hemorrhages can occur in a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. More care would be needed for pure subdural hemorrhages without obvious head trauma, and patients with hematological malignancies should be protected from even mild head trauma.
