Background: Epidemiological data regarding the causes, patterns, severity, and outcomes of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are essential to plan for preventive strategies addressing this public health epidemic. The main aim of this study is to explore the patterns and causes of traumatic brain injury at two trauma centers.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using a pre-tested validated data collection sheet. Data were collected from the medical records and electronic database of patients who presented to the emergency department with head trauma. Variables including the mechanisms, patterns of the injury, accompanying injuries, level of consciousness, and hospitalization duration were investigated for any possible association.Results: A total of 269 patients (78% males, 22% females) who satisfied our study criteria were included in the final analysis. Motor vehicle collisions were the most common reason for traumatic brain injury (57.6%) followed by falls (28.3%). There was a statistically significant association observed between type of hemorrhage and Glasgow coma scale at initial presentation (P < 0.05). Conclusion:The most common cause of traumatic brain injury is motor vehicle collisions, followed by falls. The public should be made aware of the importance of using safety and precautionary measures to minimize the impact of traumatic brain injuries. Educational programs for neurotrauma prevention can be developed and utilized as a blueprint for local hospitals and officials in the country.

The simultaneous development of two or more primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors of different cell types represents 0.9% of all diagnosed CNS tumors. To the best of our knowledge, the simultaneous occurrence of glioblastoma and pituitary adenomas has been reported four times in the English literature, with only two cases harboring prolactinoma and glioblastoma. We report a case of a 42-year-old male who was diagnosed with a sporadic co-occurrence of glioblastoma and a prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma (prolactinoma). This case report discusses the clinical presentation, radiological/histopathological features, and outcome as well as reviewing the pertinent medical literature. Glioblastoma and a prolactin-secreting adenoma may be detected within the same patient. Further studies are required to delineate the tumorigenesis of the development and co-occurrence of multiple intracranial tumors.
