Traumatic brain injuries in illustrated literature: experience from a series of over 700 head injuries in the Asterix comic books (Kamp, MA, Slotty P, Sarikaya-Seiwert S, Steiger HJ, Hanggi D)
Conclusions: Although over half of patients had an initially severe impairment of consciousness after TBI, no permanent deficit could be found. Roman nationality, hypoglossal paresis, lost helmet, and ingestion of the magic potion were significantly correlated with severe initial impairment of consciousness (p ≤ 0.05).
