Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
A calcified hematoma is an area which bled earlier during or after the surgery and presently shows calcium deposition. It is not a serious finding by itself. Should it cause any pressure effects on important brain structures and cause symptoms then a discussion with a neurosurgeon is suggested.
