摘要：
Subdural empyema is a rare intracranial infection with an accumulation of purulent material between the dura and arachnoid matter. We report a case of 17 years old presented with an altered conscious level. CSF analysis showed increased WBCs. His situation has improved after treating by acyclovir, ceftriaxone, vancomycin, and dexamethasone.
