    Author: Vachharajani A, Mathur A.
    Journal: Am J Perinatol; 2002 Nov; 19(8):401-4. PubMed ID: 12541211.
    Abstract:
    Epidural hematoma is a rare form of neonatal birth injury accounting for 2% of newborn intracranial hemorrhage. We report the first case of ultrasound-guided needle aspiration of a cranial epidural hematoma in a neonate who also suffered subgaleal and intraparenchymal hemorrhage as a complication of vacuum extraction.
