Abstract
A unique patient with bilateral subdural haematomas with localized subdural membranes on one side is reported. Serial CT scans suggested that the membranes resolved spontaneously after drainage of the haematoma. The pathophysiology of subdural haematoma and the value of CT scanning in postoperative follow-up are discussed, especially in regard to learning more about the optimal treatment in this still somewhat enigmatic problem.Keywords
