A review of eight cases of the Battered Baby Syndrome, diagnosed in the Orthopaedic Department of a large childrens' hospital in India during a three year period is presented. Majority of the cases had major fractures due to repetitive child abuse. Most of the children were undernourished and psychoanalysis of the parents revealed that with regard to child abuse, conditions in India do not differ materially from the Western World. This review does not include minor injuries to the children or solitary fractures in children as a results of child abuse. This may indicate that many cases have been missed. The importance of early detection of this condition and multidisciplinary approach in the management have been stressed. This condition has yet to gain wide recognition in Indian.
