| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Chronic subdural hematoma is commonly seen in elderly patients. At the same time it is very common to encounter elderly patients taking either anti-platelet medications or anticoagulants for cardiovascular or neurovascular diseases. We have practice to reverse the effects anti-platelet drugs and anti-coagulants in patients with chronic subdural hematoma by discontinuation of medications and platelet transfusion or FFP/vitamin K.
