Abstract

Paediatric facial traumas are often accompanied by other intracranial and non-head injuries. Use of
Computed Tomography (CT) has increased diagnostic accuracy when compared to plain radiographs alone. Coexisting anomalies can sometimes be a chance finding from the imagings and this highlights the need of a formalreporting by a radiologist. We report a case of a traumatic unilateral condylar fracture with a coexisting life-threatening abnormality detected from careful assessment of the imagings.
