Abstract
Vacuum extraction in nonprogressive labor is relatively safe. Only a few major complications have been mentioned. This article describes the rapid development of a growing skull fracture associated with a porencephalic cyst and parenchymal brain damage after a difficult vacuum extraction in a patient with congenital hydrocephalus and a thoracic meningomyelocele. The diagnostic and therapeutic management is discussed.Entities:
