Popis: Embolic cerebellar tissue was observed microscopically in the pulmonary and coronary arteries of a full-term male infant who died 1 hour after forceps delivery. Although embolization of brain tissue has been well documented after severe head trauma in adults and children, to our knowledge only 17 cases associated with birth trauma have been previously reported.
