In seven children with traumatic subdural hygroma, most of them showed increased intracranial pressure with focal neurologic deficits. The diagnosis of the disease was made by cerebral angiography, CT scan, ultrasonography, and diagnostic subdural tapping or craniotomy. We conclude that craniotomy or continuous drainage of hygroma should be dependent on the mature of hygroma and age of patients.
