The acute effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are well documented, but there is no systematic quantification of its long-term sequelae in Germanlanguage literature. The purpose of this article is to compare the frequency of conditions linked to prior TBI with their frequency in the non-brain-injured population. ⋯ Adverse sequelae of TBI can still be seen ten years after the exposure. These patients die earlier than persons without TBI and suffer earlier and more frequently from associated conditions.
