EMMA-Can is a prospective randomized open-label, blinded end point (PROBE) study, that will assess the recurrence risk and safety of embolization of the middle meningeal (EMMA) when added to standard of care treatment (surgical drainage) of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) compared to surgical treatment alone.

Conditions
