Subdural hygroma

A subdural hygroma is a subdural body of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), without blood. Most subdural hygromas are believed to be derived from chronic subdural hematomas. It is commonly seen in elderly patients after minor trauma but can be seen in children after an infection. One of the common causes of subdural hygroma is a sudden decrease in pressure by ventricular shunting. This can lead to leakage of CSF into the subdural space especially in cases with moderate to severe brain atrophy. In these cases the symptoms such as mild fever, headache, drowsiness and confusion can be seen, which are relieved by draining this subdural fluid.
==Signs and symptoms==
Most subdural hygromas are small and clinically insignificant. Larger hygromas may cause secondary localized mass effects on the adjacent brain parenchyma, enough to cause a neurologic deficit or other symptoms. Acute subdural hygromas can be a potential neurosurgical emergency, requiring decompression. Acute hygromas are typically a result of head trauma—they are a relatively common posttraumatic lesion—but can also develop following neurosurgical procedures, and have also been associated with a variety of conditions, including dehydration in the elderly, lymphoma and connective tissue diseases.
