Case report reveals cranial thickening caused by calcified chronic subdural hematoma, suggesting metabolic disturbances may contribute.
This case highlights that calcified chronic subdural hematoma (CCSDH) may induce adjacent cranial thickening due to chronic cerebral hypoperfusion and metabolic disturbances. Surgical resection can be performed safely, but psychiatric symptoms (e.g., depression, insomnia) may persist postoperatively, suggesting they are not always hematoma‐dependent. Careful risk–benefit assessment is crucial before intervention.
