Purpose: Pediatric head trauma phenomena are often referred to emergency services and computer tomography (BT) is often a preferred method of imaging in these phenomena. We aimed at evaluating the results of the cranio tomography of the head traumatic child patients assessed in emergency service, clinical findings accompanied by hospitalization and survival conditions as retrospective. Method: This retrospective cutting study included 400 cases of children with head trauma in emergency service between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2020. The demographic characteristics of patients, trauma mechanisms, symptoms, clinical findings, IT findings, settlement, output, consultation and survival conditions were assessed by recording. Results: The average age of patients in the study was 6.87±4.96 (distribution 0-17) Of the 400 incidents in the study, the most common type of trauma fell with 260 (65%) incidents, the most common symptom was headache with 99 (24.8%) incidents, and 264 (66) patients had a BT screening. Although 137 of all patients (34.3%) did not have any complaints, they had a BT viewing. 56% of all patients (%14) had injury in their tomography, although they had no complaints. While two hundred and eight patients had no IT injury, the most common BT findings were 80 (20%) sefalohematom and 21 (5.3%), respectively, broken. The presence of both radiological imaging and the association of clinical symptoms with the presence of injury in the IT was significant (p=0,001). Four (1%) of the patients were diagnosed with mortality. Results: In children with head trauma, the IT imaging is a very important examination and is directly related to symptoms, clinics and mortality. Patients need multi-centric prospective studies on this subject in order to create realistic and reliable algorithms for the preference of cervical IT.
