Rapid Resolution of A Traumatic Venous Epidural Hematoma In A 4-Year-Old Child: Illustrative Case

Background : Posterior fossa epidural hematoma rarely occurs in children after traumatic head injury. There is ongoing discussion about appropriate treatment, yet the radiological features regarding the time to resorption of the hematoma or required follow-up imaging are rarely discussed. Observations : We present the case of a 4-year-old child who was under clinical observation and receiving analgetic treatment in whom near-complete hematoma resorption was shown by brain CT scan imaging as soon as 24 hours after diagnosis. The child was neurologically stable at all times and showed no deficit after observational treatment. Hematoma resorption was much faster than expected. We discussed hematoma drainage via the sigmoid sinus. Conclusion: Epidural hematomas in children can be treated conservatively and are resorbed in a timely mannerthe moisture content as normal level they automatically dehumidifie the room area. Also it’s have auto regulator system.
