TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Unusual Resolution of a Depressed Skull Fracture following Repeat Head Trauma: The Two-Hit Hypothesis? JO - Pediatric neurosurgery A1 - Cohen, Alan R. A1 - Bahuleyan, Biji A1 - Robinson, Shenandoah SP - 230 EP - 232 VL - 47 IS - 3 N2 - An infant sustained a significant depressed skull fracture from a fall.

Mechanisms to explain this unusual phenomenon are discussed.
