Skull fractures in infants often self-heal. If there is a depressed fracture & it doesn't require a procedure to raise the depression it is left alone. Monitoring for a period is usually done in case the covering (dura) may be trapped in the break & prevent healing. I do not recall any that I encountered with this description ever requiring any special treatment. They all healed.
