  • Title: Neonatal posterior fossa subdural hematoma.
    Author: Coker S, Beltran R, Fine M.
    Journal: Clin Pediatr (Phila); 1987 Jul; 26(7):375-6. PubMed ID: 3595046.
    Abstract:
    Hemorrhage into the posterior fossa is a rare neurosurgical emergency in neonates. CT scanning is diagnostic. Blood layering under the apex of the tentorium cerebelli, however, may resemble a dilated vascular structure, and the rigidity of the pressured tentorium may prevent upward transmission of increased intracranial pressure, resulting in a soft fontanelle.
