Objective In patients with traumatic acute subdural hematoma (ASH), it has not been yet fully elucidated which patients can benefit from surgery or from clinical follow-up. This study was constructed to predict treatment modality and short-term prognosis in patients with ASH using their clinical, radiological, and biochemical laboratory findings during admission to hospital.  Methods Findings of patients with ASH determined on their CT scan between 2015 and 2018 were evaluated. Patients were grouped in terms of ASH-FOL (patients followed-up without surgery, n = 13), ASH-OP (patients treated surgically, n = 10), and ASH-INOP (patients considered as inoperable, n = 5) groups. They also were divided into “survived (n = 14)” and “nonsurvived (n = 14)” groups.  Results ASH developed as a result of fall from a height in 15 patients and traffic accidents in 13 patients. In deciding for surgery, it was determined that Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores   5 mm, MLS-hematoma thickness ratio &gt; 0.22, leukocyte count &gt; 12730 uL, and presence of anisocoria could be used as predictive markers. It was determined that GCS scores   8 mm, and the presence of anisocoria could be considered as biomarkers in prediction of mortality likelihood.  Conclusion It could be suggested that GCS scores, MLS level, MLS-hematoma thickness ratio, presence of anisocoria, and leukocyte count value could help in determination of the treatment modality in patients with ASH. Additionally, GCS scores, hematoma thickness value, and presence of anisocoria could each be used as a marker in the prediction of early-stage prognosis and mortality likelihood of these patients.
