The swelling may obscure the fontanel and cross cranial suture lines, distinguishing it from cephalohematoma, [2] in which the bleed is confined by its subperiosteal location. [3] Patients with subgaleal hemorrhage may also have significant hyperbilirubinemia due to resorption of hemolyzed blood. Laboratory studies may demonstrate reduced ...
While subgaleal hemorrhage is a rare complication, it is considered lethal. [9] Clinical manifestations of a subgaleal hemorrhage are variable; it is recommended that the mean time for diagnosis is typically within 1–6 hours after birth, especially if the infant delivery was through vacuum delivery or prolonged due to complications.

Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) of the newborn, previously known as haemorrhagic disease of the newborn, [1] is a rare form of bleeding disorder that affects newborns and young infants due to low stores of vitamin K at birth.

Intramuscular hematoma (inside muscle tissue) Skull/brain: Subgaleal hematoma – between the galea aponeurosis and periosteum; Cephalohematoma – between the periosteum and skull. Commonly caused by vacuum delivery and vertex delivery. Epidural hematoma – between the skull and dura mater; Subdural hematoma – between the dura mater and ...
