N2  - Animal bite is a common cause of craniofacial injuries in children. Whereas scalp lacerations from animal bites are often extensive and severe, only four instances of compound depressed skull fractures from animal bites have been reported. A case of a dog bite to the head of an infant is presented to point out the potential for such an insult to produce cranial perforation and underlying brain damage. The associated roentgenographic and computed tomographic features are shown.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
