RESUMO

Chronic subdural haematomas are frequently seen in neurosurgical practice, but because of the multitude of their clinical presentations, appropriate diagnosis is often not made in the early stages. The cases reported concern a 62-year-old male and a 54-year-old woman, both presenting in an unusual manner, namely a progressive quadriparesis.
