The objective of this study is to compare outcomes of two methods of decompressive surgery in acute traumatic subdural hematoma. Materials and Methods: This study performed from March 2010 to June 2011 in Kamyab Hospital of Mashhad University of Medical Science, and patients who underwent surgical treatment divided to Craniotomy & Duraplasty (Group I) and Craniotomy & Duraplasty & Lobectomy (Group II). Glascow coma scale (GCS) were assessed in pre- operative evaluation in addition to mortality rate and Glascow Outcome Scale (GOS) at 3 months. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS18 by Chi- Square and T- student and Mann– Whitney test. Result: 87 patients with acute traumatic subdural hematoma contributed in this study. There were 52 patients in group I and 35 patients in group II There were not any significant relationship in preoperative GCS (p= 0.93), in 3 months postoperative GOS (p= 0.35) and Mortality rate (p= 0.48) between two groups. There were not any statistical relation between preoperative GCS and postoperative GOS in group I (p= 0.15) and group II (p= 0.07). There was a statistical relationship between preoperative GCS and mortality rate in group I (p= 0.04) but not in group II (p= 0.63). Conclusion: Postoperative outcome after 3 months were similar in Craniotomy & Duraplasty and Craniotomy & Duraplasty & Lobectomy operations. Patients after Craniotomy & Duraplasty & Lobectomy operation discharged later from ICU and hospital.
