    Abstract:
    The paper summaries authors' experience with lifetime and postmortem pulmonary changes in 223 victims with severe craniocerebral injury, as well as the data available in literature on this point. The investigations have shown that microcirculatory disorders make a great contribution to the development of pulmonary complications and revealed specific feature of the natural history of the shock lung in patients with severe craniocerebral injury. The paper provides strong evidence for the neurotrophic pattern of pulmonary complications and proposes a scheme of their development in this injury.
