RESUMO

The rapid spontaneous resolution of an acute epidural hematoma (EDH) has rarely been reported. A possible mechanism of spontaneous resolution is egress of the hematoma into the subgaleal space through a skull fracture. We report a case of rapid redistribution of an acute EDH in a 37-year-old man who had a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the skull and who slipped and fell when going to the bathroom. A huge EDH without a skull fracture developed in the left parieto-occipital area. The acute EDH was completely alleviated and a newly developed intracerebral hematoma was found on a brain computed tomography scan that was acquired the day after the trauma. Given these findings, a fractured skull and increased pressure in the intradural area may have been the mechanisms underlying the redistribution of the hematoma.
