Inappropriate fusion of the cranial sutures leads to craniosynostosis and the subsequent skull rigidity can cause many developmental and structural problems. Cephalohematoma is a subperiosteal collection of blood commonly associated with birth trauma or instrument-assisted delivery and is one of the most frequently reported fetal injuries in Caesarian section procedures. There have been very few cases reported of patients with both scaphocephaly due to sagittal craniosynostosis and cephalohematoma and no reports of scaphocephaly with bilateral cephalohematoma as of the date of this report. The current literature suggests that the two conditions are potentially associated, either through mechanical pathways involving trauma or through a complex interplay of growth factors. The authors present a case of bilateral cephalohematoma with scaphocephaly secondary to progressive sagittal craniosynostosis. |
