  • Title: [Clinical picture and diagnosis of subdural hematomas in children].
    Author: Lifshits FI, Kozel' AI.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1978; (3):36-9. PubMed ID: 676627.
    Abstract:
    Thirty-six children, aged from 5 months to 14 years, with subdural haemorrhages are discussed. In 31 the hemorrhages were of a traumatic character, in 5 their origin was unknown. The authors draw the conclusion that the course of subdural hematomas in children is marked by peculiarities which often make the clinical diagnosis difficult. Examination of the cerebrospinal fluid, echo-encephalography, and angiography helped in all these cases to identify the character of the process and its localization properly. All children underwent operation with a satisfactory outcome.
