Abstract
Trauma or injury to the skull, if of sufficient force, may produce a temporal bone fracture. However, terms such as basilar skull fracture, labyrinthine hemorrhage, or labyrinthine concussion are inadequate in that they do not describe the precise histopathologic lesion. We carried out a histopathologic study of the 14 ears in seven patients; all the patients suffered at least one temporal bone fracture. Our objective was to review the histopathologic findings of various fracture lines through the base of the skull and correlate these with the history and clinical findings.
