Abstract

A 10-year retrospective study of pediatric basilar skull fractures identified 120 patients with temporal bone fractures, of which 92 had otolaryngologic and audiologic evaluations. The otologic data provide documentation of the nature, common physical findings, complications, and management of these fractures. The prognosis of hearing impairment in children caused by temporal bone fractures is elucidated, as 76 of the 92 patients were available for long-term follow-up. Close interaction between involved services evaluating and treating pediatric trauma cases is mandatory for optimal patient outcome. A literature review of the presentation, complications, and management of pediatric temporal bone fractures is presented.
