Abstract
The course of pediatric traumatic brain injury is not homogeneous because the underlying neuropathology can be so variable. Assessment, intervention, and recovery are examined among five individuals whose neuroradiologic imaging differed grossly on initial and early presentations after head trauma. Knowledge of the neuropathology in an overarching sense can be informative to a clinician's management of different swallowing problems after brain injury.Keywords
