Abstract
Background: Contrecoup extradural haemorrhage (CCEDH) is reported very rarely in literature, 13 to be exact. All these cases have been documented based on clinical, radiological and intraoperative findings.
Case Report: Here we report a rare entity of CCEDH with autopsy findings in a 48-year old male with an alleged history of falling. The clinical and the radiological findings recorded in the hospital files as well as information supplied by the investigating officer has been considered.
Conclusion: Various mechanisms of CCEDH hypothesised by the previous authors have been discussed.
