Relationship of Serum S100B Levels and Intracranial Injury in Children With Closed Head Trauma

To determine if serum levels of S100B are higher in children with CHT and ICI as detected by cranial CT and if long bone fractures affect the level of S100B in children with CHT and skeletal injury. Children
