Abstract This case report demonstrated that electro-acupuncture treatment has improved the outcome of an adolescent with severe traumatic brain injury due to a traffic accident. The patient had a bilateral frontal hematoma, subdural hematoma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, stem hematoma and diffuse parenchymal swelling with the initial Glasgow Coma Scale score of E1V1M1. Daily electro-acupuncture therapy was prescribed with strong stimulation at GV 26 (Shuigou), PC6 (Neiguan) and EX-UE11(Shixuan) when the vital signs of the patient became stable. The patient had a full recovery of the consciousness in 30 days. The follow-up observation found that he has also restored the motor and speech functions. This result suggested a potential role of electro-acupuncture in the treatment of consciousness disturbance for patient with traumatic brain injury.

In this study, we present a case of a 20-year-old male who suffered from severe traumatic brain injury with intracerebral hemorrhage, thus requiring decompressive craniectomy. Five months after, the patient underwent cranioplasty with the use of Osteomesh, a scaffold bone filler in reconstructing the post-operative cranial defect.
