 The authors have encountered a case of compound depressed skull fracture in a 59 year-old-man complicated by occlusion of the anterior 1/3 part of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS). He was hit by a hammer at the midline of the frontal region,and transferred to our emergency care unit. On admission,there was laceration of skin at the midline of the forehead,but the patient had no neurological deficit. Skull radiograph showed a depressed skull fracture over the SSS. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a small brain contusion adjacent to the depressed fracture. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) showed occlusion of the anterior 1/3 part of SSS,and extravasations of contrast medium from cortical arterioles and capillaries. CT taken at 4 hours after injury showed enlargement of the lesion with extravasations of contrast medium and the patient manifested consciousness disturbance at this point. Distribution of extravasations suggested the occurrence of hemorrhagic infarction. Elevation of the depressed skull was thus performed under general anesthesia. There was laceration of the dura 5 mm away from the SSS and lacerations of cortical vessels,but there was no apparent damage to SSS itself. The depressed bone was replaced with artificial bone. The patient was discharged without any neurological deficit. Preoperative angiography was helpful to understand the hemodynamics and risk of massive bleeding during the operation.
