Abstract

This report discusses two cases referred on the same day to the Mersey Regional Neurosurgical Unit. Both patients bore positions of responsibility and each developed an extradural haematoma as a result of neglecting to wear the appropriate safety helmet for their respective sports. The two survived, without detectable morbidity, to learn the relevant lesson.
