Spontaneous resolution of chronic epidural hematomas: report of three cases.

We report three cases of the spontaneous resolution of a traumatic chronic epidural hematoma. The patients were young adults with only mild headache after trauma. All patients were treated conservatively because of the very mild symptoms and the time lapse of 1 to 2 weeks between trauma and our unexpected detection of the frontal epidural hematomas. Slow, spontaneous resolution of the hematoma occurred in all three cases.
