Abstract
Spontaneously infected cephalhematoma are rare occurrences. Although considered unharmful can lead to anemia, jaundice and infection. Untreated infected cephalhematoma may lead to osteomyelitis, sepsis and meningitis. We present a case of bilateral cephalhematoma, aggravated by massage (a so-called social custom) leading to spontaneous infection and severe anemia, requiring aspiration, and intravenous antibiotics.
