  • Title: Craniofacial trauma in children.
    Author: Bruce D.
    Journal: J Craniomaxillofac Trauma; 1995; 1(1):9-19. PubMed ID: 11951443.
    Abstract:
    Craniofacial trauma is relatively uncommon in children, but the potential involvement of the structures at the base of the skull and the intracranial space makes it important for physicians to understand the potential dangers presented by such injuries. This report delineates the different types of injury that can damage the upper facial skeleton and the brain of a child. The author reviews initial management and diagnosis of such injuries and examines the approach to definitive reconstructive surgery using three case studies as examples for discussion.
