Abstract:
Authors experienced one case of intrauterine depressed skull fracture which associated with skull capillary hemangioma. In reviewing literatures, there are two types of intrauterine skull depression, traumatic and spontaneous. Pressure of the fetal head against maternal bony structures accounts for most of the so-called spontaneous type. Authors case was spontaneous type and associated with "fetal factor", congenital capillary hemangioma of the skull.
