Lesión cerebral tras un fallo de derivación
People who have had a traumatic brain injury or TBI, often have to have subsequent surgical procedures to help alleviate and prevent further swelling on the brain. In this case, there is often a shunt put into place in the recovering person’s brain, to drain any excessive cerebrospinal fluid. If there are complications, then there could be the issue of developing post-traumatic hydrocephalus or PTH. If a person develops PTH, this condition will severely hamper rehabilitation and a recovery after an accident that caused the TBI in the first place.
Additional Brain Injuries After a Shunt Failure Can Be Common EventsIt is actually a common event that after a traumatic brain injury, a shunt is put into the brain to help continue to drain fluid from the brain to help normalize brain pressures. The problem is that with a TBI, a shunt can cause serious complications. Some of these shunt complications can increase the risk of dying too. If the shunt has a failure, then the person can have an obstruction and it is a serious complication.
Delayed Diagnosis After a Shunt Failure Is a Serious Event Post-Traumatic Brain InjuryIf the person who has had an accident, followed by a traumatic brain injury, and a shunt was put in then has a shunt failure, this can be a serious event. For example, if a shunt fails, it can worsen the individual’s long-term outcomes for rehabilitation. Remember, after an accident, there can be a traumatic brain injury. A shunt is put into the person’s brain to ensure the brain is not going to continue to swell after the accident. If the shunt then fails, the individual can have other brain bleeding, swelling, and other complications that can cause serious injuries or even death, as a result of this type of complication.
Shunts are put into place to stay in the brain, not to fail. When a shunt fails, it is often at the cause of negligence by some party. That negligence can be the fault of the doctor or surgeon performing the surgery, the manufacturer of the shunt, the hospital staff who cared for you after the surgical procedure was performed, or from other parties directly responsible for your shunt failing after your brain surgical procedure. There is no reason for you to suffer in silence any longer.
