慢性硬膜下血肿是老年人痴呆和残疾的重要可逆原因。足够高水平的临床怀疑和及时的影像学评估可能允许及时治疗,以避免不良结局。值得庆幸的是,在大多数急救设施中,计算机断层扫描的常规使用使这些病变的诊断变得司空见惯。
Chronic subdural hematoma is an important reversible cause of dementia and disability in the elderly. A sufficiently high level of clinical suspicion and prompt radiographic evaluation may allow for timely treatment to avoid poor outcomes. Thankfully, the routine use of computed tomographic scanning in most emergency facilities has made the diagnosis of these lesions commonplace.
