We discuss an illustrative case of infected scalp abscess with osteomyelitis following a cephalhaematoma in a 19-day-old neonate. Cephalhaematoma is a common occurrence in neonates after prolonged labour, instrument-assisted, and traumatic deliveries and resolves spontaneously in the majority of cases. Infection may follow haematogenous dissemination or direct inoculation via a skin breach.

Hence there are concerns about increased risk of complication due to lack of opportunity to sustain skills in performing ET. We studied the complications and treatment outcomes of neonates treated for jaundice with ET.

The purpose of this article is to summarise risk factors, clinical criteria, pathogenesis, appropriate investigations and treatment methods for infected cephalhaematomas in infants.
