A subdural hematoma is basically a clot in the brain. It can be caused by trauma such as a blow to the head or by an internal bleed usually caused by a ruptured blood vessel. This is known as a hemmorrhagic 'stroke'. It is one of three types of strokes.

multiple small strokes can cause multi-infarct dementia. In this case, the stroke comes first and actually causes the mental problems.
