Disability from "soft" neuropsychiatric sequelae due to frontal lobe injury.

Abstract:

:Each year about 1.5 million people suffer from a traumatic brain injury. Many of these are seen in primary care settings and most recover completely. Traumatic brain injury can show many signs and symptoms, some of which are readily identified and treated. Often the neurobehavioral sequelae appear months to years later and can cause long-term disability and impairment in neurobehavioral functioning. The rehabilitation of these patients is a long and difficult process requiring early identification and proper management. This article reviews the importance of recognizing the neurobehavioral consequences of frontal lobe injury.
