title: [Posterior cranial fossa hemorrhage in term newborn infants: clinical and ultrasonographic aspects in 2 cases].
abstract: Haemorrhages of the posterior cranial fossa were diagnosed by cerebral sonography, sometimes these lesions were misinterpreted by the examination. We report two cases of posterior fossa haemorrhages in the term newborn without ultrasonography signs of this pathology. In a case some days after haemorrhagical damage, the signs of past haemorrhage were demonstrated.
