Unlabelled: D-2-Hydroxyglutaric aciduria (D-2-HG) is a rare metabolic disorder. First reported in 1980, it does not have any well-recognized presentation or specific treatment regimen. Neuroimaging findings are heterogeneous. Subdural haemorrhage has not been a feature of any of the reported cases. This report presents a boy with bilateral subdural haematoma in whom non-accidental injury was initially suspected and subsequent metabolic investigation led to a diagnosis of D-2-HG.Conclusion: In the management of childhood subdural haemorrhages, it is very important that potentially treatable metabolic disorders are detected and that parents are not wrongly accused of injuring their children.
