Cross-sectional study finds high rates of neurological recovery and low recurrence in patients with chronic subdural haemorrhage.

Surgical treatment using burr hole drainage shows a neurological improvement in 78.3% of patients, indicating its effectiveness.
Patients aged 65 and above represent 56.6% of those treated, with headache and altered mental status as common complaints.
Burr hole drainage was performed in 85.5% of cases, while factors like age and initial GCS significantly influence outcomes.
