Abstract

Introduction: lumbar puncture is one of the most important diagnostic tools for a variety of neurological disorders. Case presentation: a 32-year-old man with epilepsy, cerebral toxoplasmosis, and HIV, who presented an asymptomatic subdural hematoma following a diagnostic lumbar puncture, which was an incidental finding on imaging. Discussion and conclusions: the mechanism for post lumbar puncture subdural hematoma development is based on a low CSF pressure which allows the arachnoid matter to slide over the dura mater leading to subdural vessels tear, causing blood extravasation into the subdural space.
