Trauma: Head/Brain Injuries
... About 90% of patients are <50. Those over 50 rarely suffer this type of injury because the skull and the dura mater are more strongly adhered. Symptoms are often delayed, so patients may not seek medical help with an initial blow to the head or may appear to have no significant injury; however, as b ...
