Depressed Skull Fracture Surgery in a 1-Year-Old | Dr. Mustafa Chandshah, Neurosurgeon, Hubli, North Karnataka
A depressed skull fracture is a severe head injury where part of the skull is sunken in due to trauma. This type of fracture can be life-threatening, especially in infants, due to the risk of brain damage and infection. I am Dr. Mustafa Chandshah, a neurosurgeon practicing at KIMS Hubli, North Karnataka. In this blog, I will share a critical case of a 1-year-old baby with a depressed skull fracture that had become infected, requiring urgent surgical intervention.
