Retinal hemorrhages: advances in understanding.
[child syndrome]
Retinal
hemorrhage
is
a
cardinal
manifestation
of
abusive
head
injury
characterized
by
repetitive
acceleration-deceleration
with
or
without
blunt
head
impact
.
Detailed
description
of
the
hemorrhages
and
documentation
are
critical
to
diagnosis
.
Vitreoretinal
traction
appears
to
be
the
major
causative
factor
.
Outcome
is
largely
dependent
on
brain
and
optic
nerve
injury
.
