RESUMO
Although the rate of brain injury remains stable, due to medical advances, many patients who have suffered serious brain injury survive the accident, but remain with very important consequences. The role of the forensic doctor is increasingly more relevant in establishing curing periods, injury stabilization, treatments received and accident consequences so that the courts can dictate the corresponding compensations, incapacity levels and penal grades.

A pesar de que la tasa de traumatismos craneoencefálicos se mantiene estable, los avances de la medicina han conllevado que muchos pacientes con traumatismos craneoencefálicos graves sobrevivan a los mismos, pero queden con secuelas muy importantes. El papel del médico forense es cada vez más relevante para establecer períodos de curación o estabilización lesional, tratamientos recibidos y secuelas, para que los tribunales puedan dictaminar las indemnizaciones correspondientes, los grados de incapacidad y la calificación penal (AU)
