%X Hydrocephalus had been managed by
ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) or endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV)
since several years. But these two different technics had some complications
that must be managed promptly to avoid eventual fatal evolution. Chronic
subdural hematomas after ETV is among these complications and is a very rarely
situation observed in our department. This rare event associated with malaria
in a child is considered to have a high mortality.</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> Here we report a rare case of bilateral
chronic subdural hematoma occurring in a 4-month-old boy after ETV and we
discuss the likely pathogenesis and the difficulties of management.
