TND was not a rare phenomenon in our cohort of CSDH patients. A TND episode of 5 min, aphasia/dysphasia and/or absence of 'positive' symptoms are suggestive of a different TND pathophysiology than symptomatic seizures. Our results further suggest that treatment of TND in CSDH deserves careful consideration as management choices might influence patient outcome.
