RESUMEN
Las fracturas craneales congénitas tienen baja incidencia, de una etiología desconocida, generando una gran alarma respecto a la actuación obstétrica en el momento del parto. Se presenta el diagnóstico, exploración radiológica y evolución clínica de dos recién nacidos con fractura-hundimiento craneal intrauterina, uno de ellos con manejo expectante y el otro con manejo quirúrgico. Ambos con buena evolución posterior y sin secuelas neurológicas ni estéticas.
