Abstract
- The authors experienced a case of delayed traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage following a closed head injury. The patient had epidural hematoma at the right temporal area which was confirmed by the computed tomography. The hematoma was successfully evacuated and immediate postoperative course was uneventful. On the second day after operation the patient's condition deteriorated again and repeated computed tomography showed a large delayed intracerebral hematoma in the left occipital lobe. He was immediately treated surgically for the intracerebral hematoma with good result.
