Abstract

Although it may occur in organized hematoma throughout the body, calcification within a chronic subdural hematoma is a rare condition. The total number of cases reported so far was not more than 110. We report a case of chronic subdural hematoma with calcification in 21 year old male who suffered from chronic headache for more than 6 months. The hematoma and calcification were surgically removed, and the patient's symptom disappeared.
