Objective: to demonstrate the features of diagnosis and successful experience of surgical treatment of chronic subdural cerebral hematoma in a patient who underwent COVID-19. The choice of surgical treatment methods for patients with chronic subdural cerebral hematoma formed due to a violation of the blood coagulation system after COVID-19 and/or prolonged use of anticoagulants is very difficult due to possible complications. In the presented clinical case, the method of closed external drainage was chosen, which contributed to reducing the risk of complications and shortened the recovery period of the patient who underwent COVID-19 in the postoperative period.
