Abstract
Traumatic Basal Ganglia Hemorrhage has been rarely reported in the pediatric population. This case describes a 22 month old male who suffered a closed head injury following a motor vehicle accident and subsequently developed a basal ganglia hemorrhage. Unilateral basal ganglia hemorrhage with associated diffuse axonal injury in the corpus callosum and the grey white matter interface were visualized in magnetic resonance imaging and series of computed tomography. The patient was managed conservatively and discharged to a rehabilitation facility with minimal deficits. In summary, this case discusses the clinical and radiological prognosis of traumatic basal ganglia hemorrhage in the pediatric population.
