[Traumatic cerebral infarct].

The clinical variants of traumatic cerebral infarction (TCI) were studied according to the results of computed tomography. It was found that TCI was encountered in 3.3% of patients with craniocerebral trauma. The localization and mechanism of the development of the ischemic lesion were determined by the character of the traumatic changes in the brain. Compression of the cerebral vessels and reduced perfusion pressure in intracranial three-dimensional processes are important in the pathogenesis of TCI. Computed tomographic studies must be repeated in order to establish the diagnosis of TCI.
