Low Molecular Weight Heparin Induced Delayed Traumatic Clival Subdural Hematoma Associated With Isolated Abducens Nerve Palsy in a Child
Journal Title: Journal of Neurological Sciences-Turkish - Year 2012, Vol 29, Issue 2
Abstract
Traumatic clival subdural hematoma is a very rare clinical entity. This rarity can result in delayed or missed diagnoses. Although several hypotheses are proposed to explain this lesion, the exact pathophysiology remains to be unknown. We present a case of low-molecular-weight heparin induced clival subdural hematoma, extending to the left cerebellopontine angle and causing left abducens nerve palsy which occured six days after trauma.
