[Recommendations on the recording of the effects of birth mechanics on the newborn skull].

Recommendation of recording influence of birth mechanics on the head of the newborn. The birth mechanical influence, visible on the head of the neonate, by a single manner can be recorded. Two presented figures give an example for a possible registration of configuration and injuries. Visible configuration of the neonatal head is the extern finding of related dislocations of cerebral substance. Latters are most followed by a slight neurological symptomatology of the newborn, which most is reversible. The topical location of an irreversible brain damage in some cases, diagnosed in childhood, can be related to the mechanical course of birth.
