Management of Chronic Subdural Hematoma in Patients Requiring Therapeutic Anticoagulation

Conclusions: These cases provide anecdotal evidence of a challenging clinical scenario where there is a necessary indication for therapeutic anticoagulation (ie, venous sinus thrombosis or atrial appendage thrombus) and comorbid SDH. Endovascular MMA embolization may be an effective adjunct therapy for clinical scenarios in patients with SDH and an urgent indication for anticoagulation. Longer follow-up, prospective series, and future randomized clinical trials are needed to objectively assess outcomes in this clinically challenging patient population.
