establishing the diagnosis of epidural haematoma is not an immediate indication for surgery in the infant , because there are cases of spontaneous drainage of the haematoma from the intracranial spaces ( 3 cases ) , when after 2-3 days of observation surgery can be carried out in an improved peadiatric condition ( 8 cases ) and , as in the presented survey , there were only 9 cases when an immediate surgery had to be done .
