My dad had a head Injury which lead to SDH of 13mm thickness in left frontotemporoparietal convexity and SAH in bilateral sulcal spaces and in right sylvian fissure . He underwent a Left FTP craniotomy. My question specifically is he was discharged from hospital and the CT Scan done on the day of discharge specifies he has SDH of 5.1mm which is reduced from the size during admission to hospital and also it says an increase in size of left basifrontal hemorrhagic contusions
