Grossly Depressed Frontal Bone Fracture in a Paediatric Patient: A Case Report

Abstract

This study highlights the management of a grossly depressed frontal bone fracture with obvious deformity in a paediatric patient as facial fracture management is frequently intricate and challenging, particularly within the paediatric population as compared to adult. Paediatric fractures have a greater capacity to remodel, but the paediatric brain and craniofacial skeleton are still developing which puts the children at risk for unique complications, such as growing skull fractures.
