Cerebellar hemorrhage is an unusual complication of supratentorial neurosurgery. To the best of our knowledge, only three case reports have described the occurrence of cerebellar hemorrhage after burr hole drainage for the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (SDH). We present the case of a patient with this rare postoperative complication of cerebellar hemorrhage after burr hole drainage of a chronic SDH. Although burr hole drainage for the treatment of chronic SDH is rare complication, it is necessary to be aware of the possibility of cerebellar hemorrhage after supratentorial surgery, even with limited surgery such as burr hole drainage of a chronic SDH.
小脑出血是幕上神经外科手术中一种罕见的并发症。据我们所知,仅有3例病例报告描述了慢性硬膜下血肿(SDH)钻孔引流术后发生小脑出血的情况。我们报告了1例慢性SDH钻孔引流术后发生这种罕见的小脑出血术后并发症的患者。尽管慢性SDH钻孔引流术出现并发症的情况少见,但即使是像慢性SDH钻孔引流这样的有限手术,也有必要意识到幕上手术后发生小脑出血的可能性。
