  • Title: Ocular involvement after subgaleal hematoma.
    Author: Karcioglu ZA, Hoehn ME, Lin YP, Walsh J.
    Journal: J AAPOS; 2008 Oct; 12(5):521-3. PubMed ID: 18620880.
    Abstract:
    Subgaleal hemorrhage (SGH) is a known complication of both major and minor childhood head trauma. Rarely, it can be associated with intraorbital hemorrhage and ocular compromise. We report a child who presented with SGH and later developed orbital hemorrhages bilaterally with loss of vision necessitating surgical intervention. We also review the literature for this condition.
