| Abstract: | Two infants with intracranial bleeding are described. Each had extensive evaluations aimed at uncovering vascular anomalies or bleeding diatheses. Plain skull radiographs that demonstrated fractures led to the correct diagnosis of child abuse. This report serves to emphasize the value of the plain skull radiograph in the evaluation of infants with intracranial bleeding. |
