A total of 76 patients with traumatic extradural haematoma were treated within a period of 3 years. Four patients developed delayed extradural haematomas. These cases are reported in view of the unusual sequence and the importance of early diagnosis.
A vascularized outer-table calvarial bone graft was used for repairing a Posnick type 2 traumatic orbito-frontal bone defect supported by the use of a calcium-based putty (Allomatrix) in a 7-year-old girl. Gaps between the donor and recipient sites were filled with Allomatrix containing demineralized bone matrix particles. Four years later there was a good cosmetic result using an artificial left eye.
