After surgical evacuation of a subdural hematoma there is a constant relationship between the return of the deep veins to the midline, the clinical recovery and the absence of a new subdural collection, even when the anterior cerebral artery remains deviated across the midline.

β¦ Synopsis
We did a prospective study of 70 adults with chronic subdural hematomas. We looked at the correlation between some aetiological, clinical, and radiological factors and outcome. The present analysis found a significant positive correlation of cephalea, isodense aspect of the hematoma at CT scan, and pulsatance of the encephalon at surgery to good clinical outcome. Viceversa, alcoholism and intracranial hypotension associated with postoperative pneumocephalus are factors usually correlated with a negative clinical course.
