Abstract
Calcified subdural hematoma is a rarely seen event. It may develop secondary to previous trauma or inappropriate surgical procedures. Due to the not well understood etiology, there are variations in the treatment choices. We present a 27-year old male patient with calcified chronic subdural hematoma. He was operated on following an motorcycle accident in another hospital 5 years ago. He was admitted to our hospital complaining about seizure, headache and dizziness. Neuroradiological examination revealed a calcified chronic subdural hematoma was detected on the right hemisphere. The patient was hospitalized and put on anti-epileptic and analgesic drugs. Any surgical treatment was not applied. In cases with calcified chronic subdural hematoma, the decision of surgical operation should be decided after a carefully and meticulously investigation. It should be avoided any profitless and likely harmful surgical procedures. The clinical observation may be appropriate in the determination of treatment approaches.
