Abstract
Epidural hematoma, usually caused by tearing of middle meningeal artery, is associated with hematoma expansion and rapid deterioration within first 24 hours. Nevertheless, hematoma size enlargement later than 3 days after injury rarely occurs. This case will outline a delayed progressive epidural hematoma patient who eventually deteriorated at fourth day after injury because of hematoma expansion.
