Neuroimaging findings of retroclival hemorrhage in children: a diagnostic conundrum
2014
Background
Retroclival hemorrhage in children may occur in three compartments, namely epidural, subdural, and subarachnoid, frequently secondary to trauma. Retroclival epidural hematoma may be associated with ligamentous injury, which may further result in instability at the craniocervical junction. Retroclival subdural hematoma may indicate a sentinel event for traumatic injury elsewhere within the brain or posterior fossa. Retroclival subarachnoid hemorrhage may have severe clinical consequences related to vasospasm.
