Pathological Features of Traumatic Brain Injury

Tony Peter

An injury to the brain caused by an external force is referred to as a traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as an intracranial injury. The severity of a traumatic brain injury (TBI), mechanism (closed or penetrating head injury), or other characteristics (e.g., occurring in a specific location or over a widespread area) can be used to classify TBI. Head injury is a broader category that includes damage to other structures like the skull and scalp. Physical, mental, social, emotional, and behavioral symptoms are all possible outcomes of traumatic brain injury (TBI), which can range from complete recovery to permanent disability or death.
