CHILDREN'S BRAIN CONTUSION - GRADU LEVI

D. Cholakov

Abstract

A total of 676 children with a diagnosis of brain contusion - gradu Levi (BC-gl) were examined. A comparison was made with brain concussion leading to the conclusion that the symptoms of BC-gl were more severe and variable. Two types of fluctuation of altered consciousness and biphasic awakening were described. The damaged consciousness, headache, vomiting, amnesia, and traumatic cerebral nerve injury were the "cardinal symptoms" of BC-gl. Epileptiform changes were rare (in 6 % of the cases) but alarming findings. The great variety of symptoms facilitated BC-gl diagnosis. The prognosis was favourable.
