Acta Neurochirurgica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Three cases with small traumatic haematomas in the midline structures of the brain are reported.

In spite of their small size, the functional prognosis of these haematomas is very poor. The mechanisms of bleeding and the relevant literature are discussed.
