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.
众所周知，慢性硬膜下血肿和头颅血肿在一些患者中会发生钙化。我们报告了两例有趣的病例，一例是儿童头颅血肿钙化，另一例是老年女性慢性硬膜下血肿钙化。首例患者是一名7个月大的男性，患有头颅血肿钙化，表现为颅骨外观畸形，但无任何神经功能缺损。另一例患者是一名54岁女性，患有慢性硬膜下血肿钙化，有过一次癫痫发作，但无任何神经功能缺损。CT扫描显示血肿钙化，导致两名患者均出现双层颅骨外观。
