Abstract
Elderly patients with aSDH requiring surgery have a high likelihood of mortality. 24% of surgical patients were functional enough to go home or to a rehabilitation facility from the hospital. Age over 80 years old, GCS <9, or cerebral edema significant enough to warrant decompressive craniectomy were associated with an increased risk of death.
