Factors Associated Postoperative Hydrocephalus in Patients with Traumatic Acute Subdural Hemorrhage.
Conclusion: In patients with acute traumatic SDH with coexisting IVH, a large amount of SDH, and a larger midline shift, close follow-up is necessary for the early prediction of postoperative hydrocephalus. Furthermore, craniectomy margin need not be limited in acute traumatic SDH patients for the reason of postoperative hydrocephalus.
