Re-formation of acute parietal epidural hematoma following rapid spontaneous resolution in a multitraumatic child: a case report.

Acute epidural hematomas resulting from traumatic brain injury remain among the most common causes of mortality and disability. In the literature, there are cases about the resolution and recurrence of spinal epidural hematomas. This case is characterized by the rapid disappearance and re-formation of an acute cranial epidural hematoma (EDH) associated with no overlying skull fracture. Various authors have reported resolution of EDHs managed conservatively, but rapid resolution and recurrence of cranial EDH was not reported before.
