Abstract

Case presentation: We report a male term newborn with a congenital macrocephaly, 3.5 standard deviation above median noted at birth. The antenatal history, including ultrasonography was reported to be normal. The head circumference was measured between 10th and 50th percentile at 21 weeks 3/ 7 and 30 weeks 5/ 7, respectively. Postnatal adaptation was complicated by poor respiratory effort and the baby had to be intubated at 8 minutes of age.
