'Double skull' appearance due to calcifications of chronic subdural hematoma and cephalhematoma: a report of two cases.

Chronic subdural hematomas and cephalhematomas are known to become calcified in some patients. We present interesting cases of cephalhematoma in a child and calcified chronic subdural hematoma in an elderly lady with both getting calcified. The first patient was a 7 months male with calcified cephalhematoma who presented with cosmetic deformity of the skull but did not have any neurological deficits. The other patient was a 54-year-old lady with calcified chronic subdural hematoma who presented with one episode of seizure but did not have any neurological deficit. CT scan revealed calcification of the hematoma causing a double skull appearance in both patients.
