Özet
Shaken baby syndrome (SBS) is a serious type of physical abuse characterized by subdural hematoma and retinal hemorrhage. This syndrome is frequently seen in children younger than 2 years of age. Most of the time it results in death or severe neurological damage. In these cases, external visible injuries are generally absent; often there no history of shaking or trauma. Clinical symptoms and findings are nonspecific. Therefore, most of the cases are missed when SBS is not considered in the differential diagnosis. In this article, we reported two SBS cases admitted to our hospital with a history of head trauma and convulsions, resulting in death in one case. © 2012 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
