The doctrine concerning sequellae of head injury
Abstract
This article presents the doctrine concerning sequellae of head injury. The definitions of these consequences are described with clearly distinction of the terms «sequellae» and «complications» of head injury. The classification of head injury sequellae is described in details with the definition of tissular, liqourodynamic and vascular consequences. The detailed description of their neurological and neurovisualization characteristics is presented. The conceptual approaches to reconstructive and minimally invasive neurosurgery of posttraumatic pathology of brain were developed.
