Abstract

Car crashes lead to central nervous system damages inducing mainly either locomotor and bladder in case of spinal injury or cognitive impairment after brain injury. Recently the way of management of locomotor disability changes a lot due to economical, philosophical reasons and scientific progress. A better understanding of mechanisms of ladder dysfunctions after spinal lesions lead to introduce new therapeutics solution in these patients which significantly reduce mortality and morbidity. Cognitive impairments following traumatic brain injury are now better characterised and their management becomes more efficient.
