dc.description.abstract | All patients presenting with chronic subdural haematomas over the three year period to Kenyatta National Hospital, Nairobi have been reviewed. Of the fifty-one patients five were diagnosed at postmortem. Of the remaining forty-six patients who were operated seven died.
Diagnostic failure was caused mainly by failure to consider the possibility of a chronic subdural haematoma.
An attempt has been made to characterise the clinical pattern that may suggest the presence of chronic subdural haematoma. | en |
