Abstract :
Acute subdural hematomas (a SDH) is a
common pathology in head trauma. In this case report, we
study about left tentorial subdural hematoma, posterior
interhemispheric SDH and small hemorrhagic foci in the
left temporal lobe near the temporal horn of left lateral
ventricle due to hypertension. A 85-year-old male patient
was confirmed to have Left hypertensive tentorial bleed.
The patients had been diagnosed with CVA one and half
years back and MRI Brain, CT Plain Brain was taken on
the day before admission. And finally, he was diagnosed
with left hypertensive tentorial bleed which is manifested
with weakness in both upper and lower limbs and inability
to speak and walk. The patient was treated with anticonvulsant, antibiotics, anti-hypertensive agent,
psychostimulant, nootropic and anti-hyperlipidemic agent.
The treatment for hypertensive tentorial bleeding requires
early diagnosis, proper management of blood pressure,
therapeutic management and surgical intervention if
required.
