Elevated fractures of skull in pediatric age group are rarely reported in the literature. In view of rarity, we present a series of five cases of elevated skull fracture in pediatric age group. Over a period of 1-year, we operated on five such cases. In this article, we have discussed the mode, mechanism and extent of injury, its clinico-radiological findings, course of the disease, and the management outcome. Four out of five cases improved after surgery and did not suffer any complications. Early recognition and appropriate management of compound elevated fracture in pediatric age group comes with good outcome and prevents unwanted morbidity and mortality.
小儿颅骨隆起性骨折在文献中鲜有报道。鉴于其罕见性,我们呈现了一组五例小儿颅骨隆起性骨折病例。在一年的时间里,我们对五例此类病例进行了手术。在本文中,我们讨论了损伤的方式、机制和范围、临床放射学表现、疾病进程以及治疗结果。五例中有四例术后病情改善且未出现任何并发症。小儿复合性隆起性骨折的早期识别和恰当处理可带来良好预后,并预防不必要的发病率和死亡率。
