摘要
Burst frontal lobe or frontal lobe contusion is commonly seen in road traffic accidents (RTA) or assault. Chronic subdural hematomas are seen in elderly patients with history of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use, chronic alcohol intake, and antithrombotic and/or anticoagulant therapy. Extradural and acute subdural hematomas are often seen in young patients following RTA or trauma. The coexistence of all the above-mentioned conditions, that is, lobar contusion, acute-on-chronic subdural hematoma (SDH), and acute extradural hematoma (EDH), in a patient is rare. Based on the Glasgow Coma Scale and imaging findings, early surgical intervention was planned in our patient. Early surgical evacuation of contusion, acute-on-chronic SDH, and EDH, as was done in our patient, will lead to early recovery. Avoiding alcohol intake and use of helmets while riding motorcycles will lead to reduction of such RTA in future.
