Temporary brittle bone disease:association with intracranial bleeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We report 20 infants aged between 1 month and 6 months found to have subdural bleeding and also multiple unexplained fractures in a pattern similar to that described earlier as temporary brittle bone disease. Child abuse seemed unlikely as a cause of the
