Despite significant advances in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (STBI), mortality among them remains very high (40-60%), especially among patients with traumatic brain crush foci (TBCF). The formation of a brain crush focus as a volumetric formation often ends with the development of a dislocation syndrome that requires urgent surgical resolution [3, 5].
