ScanSolve AI Answer
a) Caput succedaneum is a diffuse, edematous swelling of the soft tissues of the scalp that crosses suture lines and is present at birth, resolving within a few days. Caput hematoma (or cephalohematoma) is a collection of blood between the skull bone and its periosteum that does not cross suture lines, often appearing hours after birth and resolving over weeks to months.
