Correlation of Contusion Morphology and Volume With Functional Recovery and in Hospital Mortality in Traumatic Brain Injury

Objective: Traumatic cerebral contusions are one of the most clinically significant parenchymal lesions and contribute to great morbidity and mortality. Early identification of radiological factors associated with poor outcome can be helpful in early surgical intervention. To identify the association between contusion morphology and contusion volume and functional outcome and in-hospital mortality of patients suffering from traumatic cerebral contusions. Methods: test, and Fisher's exact test. Conclusion: In patients with traumatic cerebral contusions, a large volume of lesion, herniation-type appearance, and an unfavorable anatomical location were associated with poor functional outcome and in-hospital mortality.
