Article Synopsis
- The study focused on surgical treatment for compound depressed fractures located over the dural venous sinuses, emphasizing how to predict and manage injuries to these sinuses during surgery.
- A total of 34 patients were reviewed, primarily males with an average age of 19.85 years, showing that many experienced isolated head trauma and that the superior sagittal sinus was most commonly affected.
- The findings indicated that while intraoperative sinus tears were common, they could generally be controlled; however, severe injuries leading to massive bleeding and complete sinus tears were rare, especially in cases of significant head trauma.
