- The study evaluates the effectiveness of the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) in assessing severely injured patients in India, comparing the results to the Major Trauma Outcome Study (MTOS).
- It involved 300 trauma patients, finding that road traffic accidents were the leading cause, with 57 patients classified as severely injured (IS ≥ 16) and a higher observed mortality rate (33.3%) than predicted (15.7%).
- The study concluded that TRISS, which uses MTOS coefficients, does not accurately predict survival rates for trauma patients in developing countries like India, highlighting the need for a national trauma registry to create better scoring systems.
Inflammatory pseudotumor (IP) is a nongranulomatous inflammatory process with no apparent local or systemic cause. The distinction between IP and malignant tumor is of great clinical importance. The incidence of IP in the head and neck region is very low.
