A right parietal subgaleal crescent-shaped isodense area with partially calcified smooth outer border, impressive of partially calcified cephalohaematoma.
No acute traumatic brain injury identified.
Case Discussion
Calcified cephalohaematoma is a sequel of cephalohaematoma due to a previous head injury. It appears as an iso/hypo-dense area with a calcified outer border giving a double skull appearance.
In this case, a previous cephalohaematoma may be occurred during delivery.
