We should men-tion also the more recent reports of Schwartz who studied thehealing of skull fractures roentgenologically; of Denks, whoemphasized the frequency of demonstrable fissures in appar-ently harmless hematomata in children, and of Markovic, whocollected the cases of basal fracture from our material. The cases which we had opportunity to examine were thoseof fissures, depressed fractures, gunshot wounds, defects, andothers. Several of these may be cited in brief: 59According to our experience, such an occurrence seems to be able to take placewithin a few months after the trauma. 152 ROENTGEN DIAGNOSIS OF DISEASES OF THE HEAD.
