Skull Fractures

Skull Fracture Lawyers in Atlanta

Information from a Compassionate Lawyer

During childbirth and the early stages of life, a child's head is in a formative stage and extremely sensitive to trauma. Unfortunately, this makes their skulls vulnerable to fractures, which can have lasting consequences for the child's health and development. When these kinds of injuries are inflicted during childbirth, where every consideration should be made to ensure the safety of the child, then those responsible need to answer for their negligence.

Common Causes & Side Effects of Skull Fractures

In cases of emergency deliveries, undue pressure can be placed on a newborn's head and a fracture can occur. However, there other cases in which vacuum extractors, forceps, and other medical equipment can cause this injury during routine deliveries. In rarer cases, a drop in the delivery room can also cause a fracture. Depending on the severity of the fracture, its effects can vary. All of them, however, have potential to create long-lasting consequences.

Common effects of childbirth skull fractures include:

  • Stroke
  • Seizures
  • Developmental issues
  • Internal bleeding
  • Death
