Management of Calcified Cephalohematoma of Infancy: The University of Michigan 25-Year Experience.

Background: Cephalohematoma of infancy is the result of a subperiosteal blood collection that usually forms during birth-related trauma. A small proportion of cephalohematomas can calcify over time, causing a permanent calvarial deformity that is only correctable with surgery. The authors present a technique for the excision and reconstruction of calcified cephalohematoma and their management experience over the past 25 years.
