Case report describes emergent MMA embolization for significant AEDH, suggesting it may be a viable minimally invasive alternative.

MMA embolization effectively resolved acute epidural hematoma after minor head trauma, ensuring patient safety.
The patient, a 59-year-old male, had significant AEDH volume treated successfully with a transradial approach.
Angiography confirmed successful embolization of the middle meningeal artery, preventing further hematoma expansion.
Follow-up CT showed nearly complete hematoma resolution, supporting the utility of MMA embolization in select cases.

Shimoi et al. (2025) studied this question.
