Interhemispheric subdural hematoma (ISH). Case report

J Neurosurg Sci. 1991 Oct-Dec;35(4):217-20.

Abstract

Interhemispheric subdural hematoma (ISH) is a rare form of post-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage. The Authors report a further case and review the relevant literature. ISH most frequently gives a clinical picture corresponding to the falx syndrome. The possibility of an interhemispheric hematoma evolving into a chronic subdural hematoma of the convexity is considered together with both surgical and medical therapeutic indications.
