ABSTRACT

A chronic subdural hematoma is the collection of blood that slowly accumulates in the subdural space, and is a frequent clinical entity in neurosurgical practice. Worldwide, its prevalence is higher among the elderly population, and due to the proportion of people aged 65 years and older is expected to double by 2030, showing a substantial increase in its incidence. Its pathogenesis has been discussed in the literature for decades. The pathophysiology is increasingly clear due to recent findings on imaging studies and human models. Better understanding of the pathogenesis, identification of risk factors, progress in medical imaging and treatment has greatly improved the prognosis. We review the epidemiology, pathogenesis and pathophysiology, and thus offer an updated concept on the development of this condition commonly seen in hospitals.
