Abstract
We have carried out clinical, radiological and some hematological evaluation of post-traumatic subgaleal hematoma in 55 Nigerians who were treated for head injuries at the he University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria, in 1970. Most hematomas spontaneously resolved within four weeks of the injury, so that masterly inactivity should be the first line of treatment for this entity.
