It is a rare complication of immune thrombocytopenia. Here we report a case of 45 years female presenting with presenting with complaints of headache, palpitation and menorrhagia and later diagnosed to be a case of Grave's disease with thrombocytopenia with sub dural hematoma. No such case reports are available in literature. date: 2013-01-25 date_type: published publication: Online Journal of Health and Allied Sciences volume: 11 number: 4(17) publisher: Kakkilaya BS refereed: TRUE referencetext: 1.
