[Successful treatment by a drainage of subdural hematoma in a case of intracranial hemorrhage due to DIC complicated with acute promyelocytic leukemia].
A 24 year-old female was admitted because of hypermenorrhea and petechiae. The peripheral blood tests on admission were consistent with acute promyelocytic leukemia complicated with DIC. BHAC-DMP therapy was started along with platelet transfusions and heparin administration. On the day 9 of admission, on the contrary to the improvement of hematological data, the patient suffered from severe headache and nausea. The neurological examination revealed anisocoria. Right side chronic subdural hematoma was a diagnosis made by emergency CT scan and was treated with drainage of the hematoma. Post-operatively, the patient did well, and achieved complete remission on the day 43 of admission. Since intracranial hemorrhages due to DIC complicated with leukemia are often fatal, those patients are usually treated conservatively. However, as shown in this case report, some cases might have an indication for the neurosurgical operation. It is important to check conditions carefully whether the patient has an indication for the operation.
