The mean age of our patients was 21 years old, with male predominance [87.7%]. 57.5% of these traumatisms were caused by aggression, 17,8% by road trafic accidents and 16.4% by falls. The neurological examination showed a normal consciousness in 80% of the cases, vigilance disorders in 20% of the cases, and signs of localizations in 23% of the cases. The radiography of the skull showed that the osseous damages [depressed fracture of the skull-pressed fracture of the skull were frequent in the parietal region [31%]. The computed tomography scan, achieved in all cases, was very useful in the detection of associated intracranial lesions.
