Abstract
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) results from activation of the blood
coagulation cascade by various disease processes. DIC may occur with blunt head trauma
and, with severe head trauma, may reflect brain parenchymal injury. Oral and maxillofacial
surgeons who treat traumatized patients should be aware of the implications of DIC
with regard to patient management, diagnosis, and surgical considerations.
