| Abstrakt: | Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a connective tissue disease with vascular abnormalities involving multiple organs. The prevalence of ADPKD associated with a spontaneous subdural hematoma (SDH) is very low, with less than 10 cases reported in the literature to date. Symptomatic chronic SDH is classically treated with a twist drill, burr holes, or craniotomy. Recently, middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization has emerged as an ancillary modality. We present the first case in the literature of a bilateral SDH in a young ADPKD patient successfully managed with MMA embolization. Moreover, we discuss the role of different treatment modalities on this subset of patients. Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist.
