About The Study: In this cohort study, early extracranial surgery was associated with adverse function, cognition, and disability after traumatic brain injury (TBI) rated as moderate-severe or with radiographic abnormalities on computed tomography (CT) scan regardless of Glasgow Coma Scale at index admission but not after orthopedic trauma or CT− TBI. Further studies may help determine whether surgical timing or other interventions can improve the observed long-term deficits.
