“…It is imperative to perform an image exam to assess the extent of the damage, so a computed tomography scan (CT) is essential. In the scenario of traumatic brain injury, CT allows a fast assessment, with good tomographic-clinical correlation 6 . In addition, it is the best modality to evaluate bone deformities and has good sensitivity to foreign bodies, except for the detection of wood particles 7 .…”

“…Cranioencephalic trauma (CET) is one of the leading morbimortality causes in Brazil and in the world, most commonly occurring in the young adult age group (1) . Most temporal bone fractures result from high-energy blunt head trauma, many times related to other skull fractures or to polytrauma.…”

“…According to a study published by Morgado et al (5) , in spite of most CET cases (82.4%) being classified as mild, tomographic changes were observed in approximately 80% of their patients. Such data highlight the importance of skull computed tomography as the method of choice in the initial assessment of such patients (1) , in addition to the Glasgow Coma Scale and information regarding the accident (5) . Multiplanar reconstructions allow detailed evaluation of the base of the skull, temporal anatomy as well as the extent of injuries involving specific structures (3,4,6) .…”

Most temporal bone fractures result from high-energy blunt head trauma, and are frequently related to other skull fractures or to polytrauma. Fractures and displacements of ossicular chain in the middle ear represent some of the main complications of temporal bone injury, and hence they will be more deeply approached in the present article. Other types of injuries include labyrinthine fractures, dural fistula, facial nerve paralysis and extension into the carotid canal. Computed tomography plays a fundamental role in the initial evaluation of polytrauma patients, as it can help to identify important structural injuries that may lead to severe complications such as sensorineural hearing loss, conductive hearing loss, dizziness and balance dysfunction, perilymphatic fistulas, facial nerve paralysis, vascular injury and others. Keywords: Temporal bone trauma; Ossicular injuries; Ossicular trauma.A maioria das fraturas dos ossos temporais resulta de traumas cranianos bruscos, de alta energia, estando muitas vezes relacionadas a outras fraturas cranianas ou a politraumatismo. As fraturas e os deslocamentos da cadeia ossicular, na orelha média, representam umas das principais complicações das injúrias nos ossos temporais e, por isso, serão abordadas de maneira mais profunda neste artigo. Os outros tipos de injúrias englobam as fraturas labirínticas, fístula dural, paralisia facial e extensão da linha de fratura ao canal carotídeo. A tomografia computadorizada tem papel fundamental na avaliação inicial dos pacientes politraumatizados, pois é capaz de identificar injúrias em importantes estruturas que podem causar graves complicações, como perda auditiva de condução ou neurossensorial, tonturas e disfunções do equilíbrio, fístulas perilinfáticas, paralisia do nervo facial, lesões vasculares, entre outras.
