Abstract:
Subdural hematoma is a common disease of intracranial hemorrhage that accounts for 11-21% of all head trauma patients. It is defined as a hematoma that develops between dura mater and subarachnoid space. In elder patients, mild trauma may not always be accurately recognized and symptoms may not develop slowly due to the large area of subdural space. Headache is the most common symptom of subdural hematoma and may be associated with hemiplegia, dysarthria, sensation disorder, conscious disorder, and etc. We present, with a literature review, a case of a patient who developed subacute subdural hematoma after performing Brandt-Daroff habituation exercise to treat benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.
