Abstract
Traumatic brain injury is the brain damage caused by external mechanical force, for example: a severe impact as a result of a car accident, a blow of a blast wave, biomechanical damage to the brain as a result of a collision with contact sports, etc. This is a complex trauma with a wide range of symptoms became the main cause of death and disability in modern society throughout the world. The results of numerous therapeutic approaches to treating the consequences of injuries have shown promising perspectives in animal models of traumatic brain injury, but have not achieved any significant efficacy in clinical trials. In this review, we will consider the current topical issues of traumatic brain injury: a modern classification; general principles of the development of the pathological process; models of brain trauma in animals; therapy with the application of stem cells of various genesis.
Key words: traumatic brain injury; animal models of traumatic brain injury; stem cells therapy
