case_images: However, on day 4 after the injury he deteriorated gradually and a new CT scan revealed enlargement of the left subdural collection with dilatation of the ventricles (Figures 1(a) and 1(b)). A followup CT scan (Figure 1(c) and 1(d)) three months after the operation showed normalization of the ventricles, and the subdural collection was almost absent.

case_images: A followup CT scan showed complete removal of the hematoma, but the subsequent scans revealed a subdural CSF collection with ventricular dilatation (Figure 2(a)). The subdural effusion disappeared, and the hydrocephalus was successfully treated (Figure 2(b)).

case_images: Satisfactory removal of an acute subdural hematoma (a), but the followup scan revealed ventricular dilation with a right subdural effusion and widening of the interhemispheric fissure (b) and (c), which were successfully treated with a V-P shunt.

case_images: The post-op CT scan revealed normalization of the ventricular size and absence of the right frontal and interhemispheric subdural effusion (Figure 3(d)).
