摘要
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can result in hypopituitarism, which in turn affects survival and reduces quality of life. Although this problem is recognized, TBI-related pituitary dysfunction remains underdiagnosed. There is currently no consensus about which patients should be screened; however, the authors of this Viewpoint suggest that case-finding might be the most effective approach.
