Abstract
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a commonly encountered disease in the field of neurosurgery, typically resulting from head trauma. Several medical treatments have been introduced to manage patients with CSDH though surgical drainage is the main strategy to manage symptomatic patients. This review is aimed to meticulously examine contemporary pharmacological approaches, based on a thorough understanding of CSDH pathophysiology. Finally, the review offers a glance into future perspectives to enhance the management of CSDH.
