A Case Report on Delayed-Onset Diffuse Axonal Injury
DAI is often associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI), and it should always be suspected when the clinical presentation of the patient is significantly more severe than the initial computed tomography (CT) head findings. Maintaining a strong clinical suspicion and considering the possibility of unusual findings can facilitate prompt diagnosis and management of patients with DAI in clinical practice.
