[Acute traumatic epidural hematoma in a 5-month-old infant]

The authors describe a case of acute traumatic epidural haematoma in an infant aged 5 months after slight head injury Acute anaemia coexisted. In view of the rarity of this complication after craniocerebral trauma in this age group and clinical distinctness of epidural haematomas in children this possibility should be considered in the differential diagnosis of sequelae of head trauma in infants.
