Light Passing

Using transillumination and a sensitive cadmium sulfide light meter, 145 newborns were screened for the presence of intracranial hemorrhage. Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) was suspected when the light meter could not detect any light passing through the anterior fontanel when the light beam was directed through the frontal eminence. ICH was confirmed by cranial computed tomography or postmortem examination in all 17 infants not transmitting light. Spectrophotometry was performed on samples of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to demonstrate the mechanism through which blood in the CSF blocks light transmission.

Physical Findings

I find it necessary to comment on the paper "Cephalosporium Meningitis" (Pediatrics, 44:749, 1969) in order to emphasize a word of caution to physicians who may encounter patients under circumstances similar to those described by Drs. Papadatos, Pavlatou, and Alexiou. The patient reported was a newborn infant who on day 15 of life became irritable, listless, and refused feedings. In the absence of abnormal physical findings, the cerebrospinal fluid was examined and found to be slightly xanthochromic with 20 white blood cells per cu mm, and with normal chemical constituents.
