  • Title: CT demonstration of intracranial haemorrhage in term newborn following vacuum extractor delivery.
    Author: Avrahami E, Frishman E, Minz M.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 1993; 35(2):107-8. PubMed ID: 8433783.
    Abstract:
    Ten term newborns underwent CT of the brain 12-24 h following vacuum extractor delivery. Haemorrhage in the area of the tentorium was demonstrated in all of them, with similar findings in all cases. CT 1 week later demonstrated reabsorption of the blood without demonstrating any other brain pathology. Clinical and CT examination a year after delivery did not reveal any abnormality. The haemorrhage appears to be a benign condition.
