N2 - 31 out of 128 infants with abnormal neurological signs show areas of decreased radiodensity of computed tomography (CT) over the cerebral hemispheres, primarily frontal. It is emphasized, that the diagnosis of subdural effusions is permitted in cases with decreased density over the frontal lobes and hardly visible cerebral sulci as well as wedge-shaped widening of the interhemispheric fissure. But in cases with decreased density over the frontal regions and prominent cerebral sulci a subdural effusion cannot be excluded. In association with signs of increased intracranial pressure these CT findings are yet indicative of subdural effusion. Are there to delimitate two spaces of different density between skull and cortex the diagnosis of subdural effusion is certain already by means of CT-morphological criteria. The therapeutic regimen is dependent upon the clinical symptoms.
