Intracerebral haemorrhage during surgery for chronic subdural haematoma.
Although intracerebral haemorrhage occurring after surgery for chronic subdural haematoma has been reported as a rare complication, intracerebral haemorrhage occurring during surgery has not been described previously. A case of bilateral chronic subdural haematomas, with a small motor area haemorrhage occurring intra-operatively, is described here.
