Vertex epidural hematomas.
Fourteen cases of vertex epidural hematomas encountered in patients admitted over a 12-year period (1964-1976) at the University of Genoa Neurosurgical Clinic are presented. Special emphasis is put on the large number of cases (nine) without a free interval. Clinical and neuroradiological findings, treatment and results are reported. A clinical classification of this traumatic pathology according to the epidural hematoma classification of Pecker et al is proposed.
