About this trial
Acute extradural hematoma (EDH) is a potentially life-threatening neurosurgical emergency in children, commonly resulting from traumatic head injury. Early diagnosis and timely surgical intervention are critical factors influencing neurological recovery and overall outcome. Despite advances in neuroimaging and surgical techniques, the clinical presentation, management strategies, and outcomes of pediatric EDH remain variable
