Association between cranial surgery and mortality among patients with firearm-related traumatic brain injury resulting in subdural hematoma
Cranial surgery was independently associated with lower in-hospital mortality among patients with firearm-related pTBI and SDH, and its protective effect was greater among patients with significant MLS. Further investigations of long-term functional outcomes are needed.
