Abstract
Corresponding author: Young-Woo Lee Department of Neurosurgery, Presbyterian Medical Center, 365, Seowon-ro, Wansan-gu, Jeonju 54987, Republic of Korea Tel: +82-63-230-1420 Fax: +82-63-230-1429 E-mail: yyong0411@naver.com Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common condition. However, it is rarely calcified. Among various causes, hydrocephalus and ventriculoperitoneal shunts in CSDH are uncommon causes of calcification. A 38-year-old woman presented with visual disturbance. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain demonstrated compressed optic chiasm by planum sphenoidale meningioma. And massive bilateral calcified CSDH with cerebral convexity. Surgery was performed to remove the tumor and ipsilateral calcification. The symptoms improved following discharge after surgery. As this is a rarely performed surgery, caution is advised to prevent damaging the dura matter when cutting the bone and to prevent damaging the brain during dissection.
