An Atypical Presentation of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Following a Traumatic Brain Injury: A Case Report
Abstract
Posttraumatic stress disorder can be an incredibly perplexing condition to treat. A patient suffering from this condition can have additional complications when a traumatic brain injury is superimposed on it. When derangements of numerous systems have occurred requiring the integration of numerous specialties in the patient care, the situation begins to take the form of a very novel clinical case. We presented a case of a man in his 40s who was originally suffering from PTSD that then had a traumatic brain injury resulting in numerous complaints. After mood, endocrine, neurologic, and musculoskeletal complaints arose, questions about what was the underlying etiology of each issue began to be raised.
