یک مطالعه توصیفی از آسیب های تصادفی اسکلتی و آسیب های اسکلتی غیر تصادفی از رفتار بد کودکان

Cases of neglect and child abuse represented 11% of all the studied cases, where neglect was the main cause. RTA and falling from height represented the most common cause of skeletal injury in children. Most fractures due to neglect were lower limb fractures resulting from falling from height. This demonstrates the need for early detection of neglect and child maltreatment aiming for early initiation of parental educational programs about child care and safety. Misinterpretation of skeletal injuries due to neglect or abuse can be avoided by proper training of orthopedic and traumatology staff on signs of child neglect and abuse.
