Excerpt
Several types of sensory impairments are associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Some of these impairments are the result of injury to the brain, whereas others reflect the effects of cervical trauma, cranial injury, cranial nerve injury, or cranial-adnexal injury—that is, injury to structures in the head but not the brain itself (Hammond and Masel 2007). Adequate differential diagnosis is crucial to establishing the cause of the sensory complaint and, thereby, directing appropriate clinical management.
