This study is based on 147 depressed fractures of the calvaria. 60% of the diagnosed and treated cases were compound depressed fractures. Of the 147 patients 12 developed intracerebral, epidural and subdural hematomas. 3 persons developed infections. Of course the decision to institute prophylactic anticonvulsive therapy we only found 7 cases of posttraumatic epilepsy. Because of our experience in treatment of the depressed fracture we divide a consequent and rapid diagnosis by X-rays in combination with modern computer-tomography.
