Acute subdural hematomas usually occur because of a head injury. In cases that need immediate treatment, patients will undergo traditional surgery in which a portion of the skull is removed, the ...

Associated brain damage, compression and interference with either arterial blood supply or venous drainage are the likely possibilities for the pathogenesis of seizures in chronic subdural hematoma.

These "subdural hematomas" typically require surgery to fix, but a new study suggests a better approach, one that makes sure repeat surgeries aren't required.

A new treatment combines standard hematoma surgery with an embolization (blocking) of the brain's middle meningeal artery, with the goal of avoiding repeat surgeries.

Viz SDH, which aims to detect subdural hematomas in CT images of the brain, is lucky No. 7 on Viz.ai's list of FDA-cleared imaging analysis algorithms.

“A patient with a chronic subdural hematoma who is on a blood thinner presents an even more complicated picture,” said Davies, associate professor of neurosurgery at UB.
