On a Sunday afternoon, Sept. 26, 2010, Jaynil Shah, a 21-year-old college student, was driving through a heavy rainstorm. Next thing he knew, it was November. He had suffered a stroke and gotten into an automobile accident, resulting in left pontine ischemic infarct and subarachnoid hemorrhage—an elaborate medical term for bleeding on both sides of the brain. When emergency personnel arrived on the scene, he was unconscious and unresponsive.
At Gwinnett Medical Center–Lawrenceville’s emergency department, the trauma team, led by trauma surgeon Romeo P. Massoud, M., and neurosurgeon Michael Amaral, MD, worked to control the bleeding in Shah’s brain. When he was stabilized, he was taken upstairs in the hospital to the Center for Neuroscience.
