Abstract

Bilateral epidural haematomas are rare but sequentially developed asynchronous bilateral extradural haematoma (EDH) is even rarer. We report a case of 30 year-old-male who was operated for EDH on one side and postoperative CT scan was done which revealed EDH on contralateral side which was evacuated.

Keywords
