Résumé
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an acute, natural focal disease worldwide. Bilateral subdural hematoma (BSH) is a rare occurrence in patients with HFRS. A 51-year-old man was admitted with fever, headache, lower back pain, and reduced urine volume. The patient was diagnosed with HFRS accompanied by BSH, as evidenced by IgM and IgG antibodies for hantavirus that were positive, and abnormal blood test results and computed tomographic head scan. He recovered and was discharged after symptomatic treatment. Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome might present rare clinical manifestations with BSH. The early identification of this condition is crucial to an improved prognosis.
