A Comparative Study of the Patients With Bilateral or Unilateral Chronic Subdural Hematoma: Precipitating Factors and Postoperative Outcomes

Abstract

: Bilateral CSDH tended to occur more in patients with anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy. Compared with patients with unilateral CSDH, patients with bilateral CSDH had more symptoms of increased intracranial pressure and lower incidences of midline shift on CT scans. Most patients with either bilateral or unilateral CSDH had a good postoperative outcome.
