Rash - Case 9-2: 7-Week-Old Girl: IV. Clinical Presentation
(Pediatric Complaints and Diagnostic Dilemmas)

The diagnosis of child abuse must be considered in all cases in which a child's injuries cannot be explained and there is a discrepancy between the physical findings and the history. In a study of bruises occurring in children 6 to 9 months of age, Carpenter found that all accidentally acquired bruises were on the front of the body and that no bruise was greater than 1 cm. In a larger study of children, Sugar et al. demonstrated that only 2.2% of bruises occurred in infants who did not walk or cruise, and only 0.6% occurred in children younger than 6 months of age. In cases that did not involve abuse, bruises were small, few, and located on bony prominences. Typical accidental bruises involve the skin overlying bony prominences such as the anterior tibia, knees, elbows, forehead, and dorsum of the hands. Parents can usually give explanations for how the bruises occurred, unlike these parents.
The shape of the bruise may also suggest intentional harm. Finger and thumb prints may be found on the arms where a child has been forcefully held. A blunt instrument often leaves a bruise that resembles the shape of the instrument. Loop-shaped marks are caused by a folded extension cord or rope.
