Abstract

Background:
 Traumatic brain injury is the vigilant insult of brain after a collisional trauma that leads to series ofpathophysiological events. Traumatic brain injury is an exceeding chemical process that leads towards a wide varietyof brain pathologies. There are multiple brain pathologies that are triggered by trauma and can easily be visualizedon the computed tomography. And there are wide spectra of clinical manifestation that is associated with each andevery pathology that manifests after brain trauma such as dementia, vomiting, headache, gait disturbances andsensory and visual disturbance. And the Glasgow comma score interprets the severity of the disease in the mild,moderate and severe category. The CT features of the skull fracture, epidural hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage,subarachnoid hemorrhage and intraventricular hemorrhage can be described normally by the compression ofnormal cortical tissue and compression of mid line structure and raised intracranial pressure.
 OBJECTIVE: To derive the frequency of differential diagnosis of different pathologies on computed tomographyafter a traumatic brain injury.
 MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total 195 subjects were considered for this retro prospective analytical study. All thepatients who were admitted with the history of brain trauma and had computed tomography scan as the 1st line ofinvestigation after the clinical diagnosis were considered prime for this study
 RESULTS: According to our descriptive observational research study we have concluded that. there weremultiple age groups in which different number cases that were frequent in different age group such asfrom age 15-24 we had 9 cases, 25 -34 we had 8 cases ,35-44 we had 5 cases ,45-54 we had 6 cases ,55-65we had 2 cases. According to our research the most frequent cases of TBI pathology was associated withintraventricular hemorrhage with 11 cases followed by subdural hemorrhage with 9 cases, followed byepidural hemorrhage with 6 cases and the least number of cases was associated with skull fracture andhydrocephalus
