Untreated Growing Cranial Fractures Detected in Late Stage

Abstract

We conclude that untreated GCFs may cause delayed onset neurological manifestations in addition to cranial growth asymmetry. GCFs, discovered incidentally in adolescence or adulthood without any neurological deficits, should be operated on as soon as feasible to prevent further brain destruction. Cranioplasty with dural repair, in addition to cyst fenestration, should be considered as the essential procedure for the treatment of these lesions.
