RESUMEN Fundamento: El trauma craneoencefálico es la primera causa de muerte en pacientes menores de 40 años y afecta a la población activa con una consecuente repercusión económica y secuelas incapacitantes. Objetivo: Evaluar las características de los pacientes con contusiones encefálicas me...
Crossbow injuries to the head have seldom been reported in the literature, and they
represent a unique type of penetrating brain injury (PBI) in which a low-velocity arrow
results in an intracranial fragment larger than most high-velocity projectiles, usually
with a lethal outcome.We present the case of ...

ABSTRACT Objective: To characterize the demographic, social, and economic burden of traumatic brain injury on the public health system in Brazil during the past decade. Methods: Data from the database of the Information Technology Department of the Unified Health System (DATASUS) from January 2008 to D...
ABSTRACT Introduction: Major neurocognitive disorder (MNCD) affects millions of people worldwide. However, the pharmacological options for its management are limited, ineffective and frequently associated with severe adverse reactions. Case report: An 85-year-old man with history of multiple chronic ...

Research on the prevention of post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) has seen remarkable advances regarding its physiopathology in recent years. From the search for biomarkers that might be used to indicate individual susceptibility to the development of new animal models and the investigation of new drugs, a gre...
ABSTRACT Purpose: To explore the role and mechanisms of octreotide in neurofunctional recovery in the traumatic brain injury (TBI) model. Methods: Rats were subjected to midline incision followed by TBI in the prefrontal cortex region. After 72 hours, the behavioural and neurological deficits tests wer...
