Skull depression fracture in children is one of the common forms of cranio-cerebral trauma in children. Children’s head is often involved in activities, and once the external force acts sharply on the head, skull depression fractures may occur, ranging from local depression with skin redness and laceration to local cerebral contusions, intracranial hematomas or life-threatening injuries in severe cases. The skull depression fracture in children is different from that in adults because children are growing and developing, the skull circumference gradually increases and the skull thickens with development, so if the depression fracture is not treated in time, the skull around the fracture will gradually grow and aggravate the local misalignment and secondary fracture will occur, that is, the growth fracture in children. In adults, a depressed skull fracture requires immediate surgery if the depression is more than 1 cm or if the location is critical or if there are significant symptoms. In children, depressed skull fractures should be treated as early as possible, especially if they are near a functional area, and especially if the depression is at an acute angle. The management of skull depression fractures in children is not only necessary for the development of the skull, but also for the psychological needs of the child. With the psychological development, the patient presents psychological resistance and inferiority complex to the localized depression of the skull, which seriously affects the psychological health and growth. Therefore, it is imperative and urgent to pay attention to children’s skull depression fractures.
