Methods: Retrospective study of 520 patients with traumatic brain injury were included, 308 male and 212 female. The risky factors of intracranial infection were identified. Results: Thirty two cases (6.54%, 321520) of intracranial infection were diagnosed, lntracranial infection most likely happened 4-10 days after injury. Cerebrospinal fluid leakage, drainage, multiple craniotomies were significant related to intracranial infection. Logistic regression predicted cerebrospinal fluid leakage and drainage as independent factors. Conclusion: Intracranial infection is a serious complication after traumatic brain injury, Patients with drainage or cerebrospinal fluid leakage are more risky for intracranial infection, Aggressive precaution should be taken to better outcome.展开更多
