abstract="Structural traumatic brain injury (TBI) can result in late-occurring health sequelae, consisting mainly of neuroendocrine dysfunctions. Studies have suggested that hypopituitarism is relatively common following TBI in childhood, but recent evidence suggests that the incidence appears to be frequently over-estimated. We recently showed that permanent hypopituitarism is rare after both inflicted and accidental structural TBI in early childhood. This article is protected by copyright.
