Epidural Hematoma with Ossification: Two Case Reports

Abstract

We report two case of ossified epidural hematoma (EDH). First case a 30 years male who had head injury 4 years back following a road traffic accident. Initial computed tomography (CT) showed EDH otherwise his hospital stay was uneventful. 3 years later he presented with seizure. Sequential CT scan shows hyperdense layer along the margins of the hematoma which increased in thickness. Second case a 26 years male presented with assault, CT scan showed depressed fracture of left frontal bone with resolving EDH and a thin hyperdense inner margin.

 Key words: epidural hematoma; Ossification; computed tomography.
