  • Title: Calcified subdural haematomas associated with arrested hydrocephalus--late sequelae of shunt operation in infancy.
    Author: Barmeir EP, Stern D, Harel S, Holtzman M, Krije TJ.
    Journal: Eur J Radiol; 1985 Aug; 5(3):186-9. PubMed ID: 4029154.
    Abstract:
    Calcified chronic subdural haematomas (SDH) and features of arrested (compensated) hydrocephalus were demonstrated by skull radiography and cranial computed tomography (CT) in two children who had no neurological deficit. Ventricular surgical drainage had been performed 8 and 11 years prior to admission and the haematomas remained subsequently undetected. The following presentation will serve to illustrate the characteristic radiological features of this entity, the issue of management, and includes a review of the literature.
