An intracerebral hematoma is a collection of blood from bleeding within the brain whereas a subdural hematoma is a collection of blood from bleeding outside the brain. The brain is covered by a membrane called the meninges which consists of three layers. The outermost layer is the dura mater, the middle layer is the arachnoid mater while the innermost layer which is adjacent to the outer surface of the brain is the pia mater. A subdural hematoma is therefore more specifically a collection of blood between the dura and arachnoid layers.

TaigaAn intracerebral hematoma occurs when there is bleeding inside the brain tissue itself, often due to trauma or a ruptured blood vessel. A subdural hematoma, on the other hand, is bleeding that occurs between the brain and the dura (the tough outer membrane covering the brain), usually as a result of head injury or brain atrophy. The location of the bleeding is the main difference between the two.

What is the difference between a stroke and a subdural hematoma?
A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, leading to cell death. A subdural hematoma, on the other hand, is a collection of blood between the brain and its outermost covering (the dura mater), often caused by head trauma. Both can lead to neurological symptoms, but a stroke is due to a blood vessel blockage or rupture in the brain, while a subdural hematoma is blood collecting outside the brain tissue.
