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.
