    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Neurotrauma
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Head injuries can cause diverse neurological deficits.
    • Midbrain lesions are critical for consciousness.
    • Spindle coma is a rare post-traumatic neurological state.

    Observation:

    • This case details a patient experiencing spindle coma post-head injury.
    • The patient presented with a specific neurological manifestation.
    • Diagnostic imaging was crucial for identifying the underlying pathology.

    Findings:

    • Computerized tomography (CT) identified a hemorrhagic lesion.
    • The lesion was located in the rostral midbrain.
    • This finding correlates traumatic brain injury with a specific midbrain hemorrhage.

    Implications:

    • Understanding the link between rostral midbrain hemorrhage and spindle coma is vital.
    • CT imaging is effective in diagnosing such traumatic brain injuries.
    • This case contributes to the understanding of consciousness disorders after trauma.
