ABSTRACT
The Authors propose a new approach to the treatment and prognostic evaluation of post-traumatic supratentorial acute epidural haematoma (PSAEH). As far as this lesion is concerned a group of patients with a favourable prognosis and without indications for a surgical treatment may be identified. To this purpose, the clinical picture, characterized by a slight symptomatology undergoing a regression phase (stupor, headache, etc.) and a skull CT-scan, characterized by a slight shift of the middle line structures and by the volume of haematoma less than 55 cc, are important aids.
