We report the cases of 2 infants who were born with macrocephaly and bulging fontanelles and were subsequently found to have chronic subdural hematomas on imaging studies. The etiology of 1 infant was likely due to an inherent coagulopathy, while no etiology could be found for the other. The subdural hematomas were managed by craniotomy in 1 infant and serial subdural taps in the other. There are currently only 8 other case reports of chronic subdural hematoma of the neonate in the literature. Our cases and a brief review of the literature are presented.
