Abstract
The article presents a clinical observation of the treatment of severe combined trauma in a 12-year-old child. Due to the presence of brainstem disorders and prolonged impairment of consciousness after surgical treatment and two weeks after the injury, a solution of cytoflavin (20 ml/day) was used intravenously by drip (off label) in the conservative treatment regimen with a positive effect. The neuroprotector cytoflavin may have a positive effect in children with severe TBI not only during the “therapeutic window” period, but also later. The results obtained may serve as a basis for further research.
