摘要
Ultrasound appears to be a promising tool for assessment of the state of the dura in patients suffering from a diastatic skull fracture. Our goal is to identify patients who are at a high risk of developing the complications associated with this type of fracture as early as possible in order to keep the neurosurgical repair as simple as possible.
