This document provides a summary of key information about trauma to the head and face: 1. Various types of facial fractures are described, such as orbital floor fractures which can be missed on axial CT scans. Parotid duct injuries may cause buccal branch facial nerve weakness. 2. Certain clinical signs help diagnose specific fractures. A "spectacle" hematoma indicates a superior orbital rim fracture. One cc volume increase is needed per mm of globe displacement. 3. Pediatric facial fractures differ from adults due to lack of sinus development and more cancellous bone. "Growing skull fractures" enlarge due to brain pulsations. Orbital floor trapdoor fractures in children are emergencies.
