The case of a complicated pregnancy of a woman who had undergone Cabrol's operation, and whose baby suffered from subdural hematoma is presented. Although the outcome of this case was not so severe, we would like to inform about the risk to both the mother and her fetus as a result of serious complications.

Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of disability and mortality worldwide. Acute traumatic subdural hematoma (TSDH) accounts for a large proportion of all TBI cases. However, factors to predict postoperative prognosis in patients with acute TSDH are limited.

Background: Subdural hematoma (SDH) typically occurs due to traumatic brain injury but can arise as a rare complication of procedures like endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV).
Case Presentation: We report an unusual case in a 9-year-old male with previous resection of a fourth-ventricle ependymoma at 2 years of age. Seven years post-surgery, he presented with worsening hydrocephalus and underwent ETV.

Background: Parafalcine subdural hematomas (pSDHs) are a subtype of subdural hematoma (SDH) that occur most frequently in older patients after blunt trauma. The literature primarily describes two clinical courses for patients with pSDH: those who are neurologically intact with stable examinations and imaging and those with focal deficits, with or without hematoma progression. Surgical management is undoubtedly required for the latter group; however, there are no evidence-based guidelines specifically for pSDH.
