| description | Intracranial hematoma is a common variety of brain insults in trauma. However, posterior fossa hematoma in the retroclival location is quite unusual. There are limited numbers of case reports regarding traumatic retroclival hematoma. Some are managed with surgery in this condition. We present a traumatic retroclival hematoma in a 34-year-old gentleman who sustained brain trauma in a motor vehicle accident. His condition was further complicated by hyponatremia and delayed traumatic intracerebral hematoma in a distant location. The only symptom he had later was severe headache which could be attributed to delayed traumatic intracerebral hematoma and hyponatremia. He was managed conservatively and discharged on the 12th day from the hospital. |
