AB  - A  key  aspect  in  making  a  diagnosis  of  physical  abuse  is  identifying  the  incompatibility  of  the  history  of  trauma  with  the  injuries  identified.Skeletal  injuries,  such  as  metaphyseal  corner  fractures  and  posterior  rib  fractures,  have  a  high  specificity  for  inflicted  injury  and  child  abuse.Abusive  head  trauma  encompasses  a  spectrum  of  abnormalities  including  subdural  hematomas,  skull  fracture,  and  retinal  hemorrhages.Neglect  is  the  most  common  type  of  maltreatment  reported.  Neglect  encompasses  medical,  physical,  environmental,  emotional,  educational,  nutritional  neglect,  and  inadequate  supervision.
