The authors report on a case of an 80-year-old man operated on urgently for evacuation of an acute-on-chronic subdural haematoma after a minor blunt head trauma that had occurred the day before. The haematoma was revealed by a plain CT scan on arrival at the accident and emergency department. During operation, the calvarial bone and dura mater were found to be of pathological aspect and histology subsequently confirmed metastatic involvement from a known primary prostate cancer (PC). After an initial successful technical and clinical result, the patient worsened again due to a rebleed and succumbed soon after. The awareness of the possibility of osteodural metastatic involvement could have led to the adjunct of a contrast-enhanced CT study and altered the treatment strategy.
