Traumatic brain injury, or TBI, can be very serious. It is a common injury resulting from car or truck crashes. If the victim of an accident is struck violently or receives some sudden or forceful impact to the head, it can cause brain tissue injury, bleeding, swelling and other injuries. TBI can require surgery to correct and can even result in death.
The more severe the head injury is, the more treatment and corrective surgeries can generally be expected. In some cases, surgeons will insert a device designed to take pressure off the brain. These surgeries can be extremely expensive and recuperating from TBI and TBI surgery can require that the victim stop working.
