The Shock Trauma series showed an overall 46% rate of head injury associated with craniomaxillofacial trauma.3 This included a 15% rate of coma on presentation (a Glasgow Coma Scale [GCS] score of 3 through 8), an 18% rate of subarachnoid hemorrhage, a 13% rate of subdural hematoma, and 5% rates each of intracerebral hematoma, intraventricular hemorrhage, and epidural hematoma. The overall rate of skull fracture associated with craniomaxillofacial trauma was 16%. The Shock Trauma data demonstrate an overall higher rate of head injury than most previous studies; this probably reflects the fact that the prevalence of head injury in facial trauma patients is higher than was previously appreciated in the literature. It also reflects the overall higher level of acuity seen at this institution in particular.
