Berlioz survived cranial trauma and made a remarkable recovery
Diagnosis: cranial trauma with a complex wound over the crown of the head.
Berlioz was found in Milan exhausted and unable to protect the injured area. A local responder kept the animal warm, limited movement, and arranged an urgent veterinary assessment.
The examination confirmed cranial trauma with a complex wound over the crown of the head. The care plan prioritized pain control, diagnostic imaging, infection prevention, careful wound management, and nutritional support.
Daily dressing changes protected the exact injury site while the veterinary team monitored appetite, mobility, temperature, and comfort. Rehabilitation was introduced gradually as healing became stable.
By July 31, 2026, Berlioz had completed treatment. The wound had closed, normal activity had returned, and follow-up checks supported discharge into a foster-to-adoption placement.
