Reply to Gabaeff
Abstract
The Western Journal of Emergency Medicine has received a detailed critique by Dr Christopher Greeley of the article, ‘‘Challenging the Pathophysiologic Connection between Subdural Hematoma, Retinal Hemorrhage, and Shaken Baby Syndrome’’ by Dr Steven Gabaeff, published in May 2011, Volume XII, Issue 2. The author’s response is even more detailed. The Journal recognizes that these 2 authorities are diametrically opposed in their opinions, and in the interest of fair academic discourse, we are publishing both the letter to the editor and response to the editor in electronic form for those interested in this highly contentious debate.We leave it to the reader to judge the original article, its critique, and rebuttal, on their own merits.The Editor
