EEG and the linear skull fractures.
The EEGs of 111 children under the age of 16, and 21 adults after a head injury with a linear skull fracture were reviewed. From our results it can be concluded that linear skull fractures do not add any significant abnormality or any variation to what is stated for EEGs of minimal to mild concussions.
