Baltimore Birth Injury Lawyers for Cephalohematoma
Personalized Solutions for Your Legal Concerns
Cephalohematoma is a concerning and dangerous medical condition which usually occurs during the delivery or birth of a newborn child. Commonly associated with the improper use of obstetrical tools during delivery, a cephalohematoma is an abnormal collection of blood which develops and collects underneath the skin, on the external surface of a baby’s skull bone. If your child suffered from a cephalohematoma as a result of the negligence of a doctor or nurse, there is no time to waste in enlisting the help of the experienced Baltimore birth injury lawyers of Brown & Barron, LLC, as we will do everything possible to fight against this injustice.
The improper or excessive use of obstetrical forceps is believed to increase the likelihood of a cephalohematoma, as this may result in trauma or injury to a baby’s head. Cephalohematoma is a preventable medical condition that can result in a serious and traumatic brain injury such as cerebral palsy, leading to severe and lifelong developmental delays and gross motor skill deficiencies.
Common indications of cephalohematoma include:
- Anemia
- Infection
- Jaundice
- Unnatural bulges on the child’s head
