  • Title: Infantile chronic subdural hematoma with local protrusion of the skull in a case of osteogenesis imperfecta.
    Author: Tokoro K, Nakajima F, Yamataki A.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 1988 Mar; 22(3):595-8. PubMed ID: 3362330.
    Abstract:
    Osteogenesis imperfecta with infantile chronic subdural hematoma is extremely rare and has not been previously described in the literature. Our patient was a baby girl suffering from osteogenesis imperfecta tarda (Type I) who had an acute subdural hematoma at birth and who developed a progressive chronic subdural hematoma with local protrusion of the overlying skull. She was treated surgically with a good result. This rare complication is due to weakness of an insufficiently calcified skull, which is peculiar to this disorder of bone and connective tissue development.
