Eight reported cases of neonatal epidural haematoma are reviewed. Special attention is directed at the correlation between the haematoma content and computed tomography (CT) features. Seven cases had a high density haematoma on CT, of which four showed liquid, one semi-liquid, one liquid and solid, and one solid haematoma. The low density haematoma in one case was liquid. These results suggest that evacuation of the epidural haematoma via percutaneous epidural tapping is warranted as the first line of treatment irrespective of high density on CT.
