Background: Chronic Subdural Hematoma (CSDH) is commonly found on elderly and appears to be increasing within the last decades. Not only associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, CSDH also increases financial burden, thus appropriate treatment is required for better outcomes.
Case Presentation: 82-year-old patient is admitted with the chief complaint of decrease in consciousness since 12 hours before admission. The family also complained an untreated left hemiparesis since one week prior to the admission. Patient also complained pain when straightening the right leg before losing consciousness.
Summary: CSDH is a common neurosurgical case amongst elderly. Burr-hole drainage is the preferred technique to treat the condition. Follow up after the treatment is recommended as recurrence is quite common.
