Tony Ramos’ wife, Lidiane Barbosa, said the 75-year-old actor is doing well after undergoing surgery to drain a subdural hematoma, an intracranial hemorrhage.

“It was a big scare, but he’s very well, okay? He’s already talking. Tomorrow he will be in intensive care and, God willing, he will go to semi-intensive care. Everything is fine. The surgery was considered a success, thank God God he knows what he is doing and everything happened at the right time. There is no prediction for the discharge because it just happened,” Lidiane said in an interview with SBT Friday 17.

He also reiterated that if he really wasn’t well he wouldn’t have said it. “He’s doing really well. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t talk, but he’s fine. The surgery was wonderful, all the doctors said. It was a success,” she added.

Sub dural hematoma

In an interview with Earth youneurosurgeon Victor Hugo Espíndola explained that there are two types of this hemorrhage that is located under the dura mater, which is one of the membranes that covers the brain: acute and chronic.

Acute subdural hematoma is usually the result of trauma resulting from a severe impact, such as a car accident, a fall from a motorcycle, or a fall from a height. Chronic subdural hematoma grows little by little and can occur even in low-impact trauma situations.

The doctor says that chronic subdural hematoma is more common in the elderly, in people who use anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs, and in alcoholics.

“It was probably the case with Tony Ramos, we can have everything from headaches to a more intense condition that can lead to loss of strength on one side of the body, drowsiness and, if left untreated, even coma,” he says the expert.

Could it leave any after-effects?

Neurosurgeon Felipe Mendes says there may be a risk of some consequences in case of a subdural hematoma. Between them:

  • Motor difficulties;
  • Language problems;
  • Memory impairment;
  • Personality changes and other cognitive dysfunctions.

«The severity of the consequences is generally related to the size of the hematoma, the speed and effectiveness of the treatment, as well as the presence of underlying brain damage», highlights the specialist.
