| Summary: | Background: We are presenting a case and as well as its analyzis regarding subdural hematoma reoperations. Case description: A 48-year-old patient after head trauma operated on due to diagnosed right-sided subdural hematoma. On the second day of hospitalization he developed epidural hematoma at the operation site, which reuired second surgery.
