A baby with a skull fracture was treated recently with a novel and readily-available treatment: a breast pump. Baby Elliot was born with a hole in his head. Although this is a rare occurrence, it does happen – sometimes as the result of delivery. The most dangerous kind, a depressed skull fracture, is when a piece of the skull gets pressed downwards, indented towards the brain. This was Elliot’s fracture, sometimes called a “ping pong” fracture as it can look like a dented ping pong ball, or hail damage on a vehicle. This type of fracture can put pressure on the brain or cause infection, and usually happens during birth when doctors need to use forceps or perform a c-section to deliver the baby quickly in order to avoid even greater injury to the baby.
