A member asked:
Baby born with skull fracture (ping pong) with no brain injury showed on ct scan. baby is 2 months now and the fracture resolved spontaneously and baby is thriving. could this fracture still cause him any brain damage or development delays ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the fracture is well healed, and the CT was essentially "normal", this incident will have no serious effects on developmental progress. Consult your pediatrician to assess neurologic developmental progress.
