Abstract Growing skull fracture (GSF) is an uncommon form of head trauma among young children. In prior research, the majority of GSFs were typically classified based on pathophysiological mechanisms or the duration following injury. However, considering the varying severity of initial trauma and the disparities in the time elapsed between injury and hospital admission among patients, our objective was to devise a clinically useful classification system for GSFs among children, grounded in both clinical presentations and imaging findings, in order to guide clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions. The clinical and imaging data of 23 patients less than 12 years who underwent GSF were retrospectively collected and classified into four types. The clinical and imaging characteristics of the different types were reviewed in detail and statistically analyzed. In all 23 patients, 5 in type I, 7 in type II, 8 in type III, and 3 in type IV. 21/23 (91.3%) were younger than 3 years. Age ≤ 3 years and subscalp fluctuating mass were common in type I–III (P = 0.026, P = 0.005). Fracture width ≥ 4 mm was more common in type II–IV (P = 0.003), while neurological dysfunction mostly occurred in type III and IV (P |
