Superior Sagittal Sinus Occlusion Due To Depressed Skull Fracture: Case Report

Abstract

Management of depressed skull fracture overlying major venous sinuses is still under debate. A patient was diagnosed to have open depressed fracture over superior sagittal sinus following his admittion to another hospital after a stone had struck him in the head. Four days after the scalp was sutured, he was admitted to our hospital with the complaint of lower extremity weakness and progresively worsening headache. After demonstration of the depressed fracture and the occlusion in the superior sagittal sinus by cranial computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging respectively, he was operated on. It is pointed out that surgical decompression is needed in the depressed skull fracture overlying major venous sinuses if intracranial hypertension and neurological symptoms accompany.
