In this case, a post-traumatic hydrocephalus led to subgaleal cerebrospinal fluid collection with surgical revision and transient insertion of a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt.
Two patients required reoperation for removal of a prominent, subcutaneous arrow, and 1 patient in the suture group suffered a transient peroneal nerve palsy during revision suturing.
ICD-9-CM, International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification; TIA, Transient ischemic attack.
(ICD-9 = International Classification of Diseases, 9th revision, AMI = acute myocardial infarction, TIA = transient ischemic attack, LEA = lower extremity amputation) *x indicates that all fourth digits related to this root code were included.

There are 2 types of states: absorbing, if no transition out of it is allowed (e.g. being dead), or transient, when a subject can experience further events such as a second arthroplasty following a revision of the first arthroplasty.

We experienced one case of transient axillary nerve impairment, one case of superficial wound infection, one deep infection that underwent revision surgery, one dislocation which also underwent revision surgery with a thicker inlay and one patient presented persisting pain resistant to medical therapy.
Computational fluid dynamics analysis after this revision showed that the pronounced residual error oscillations were no longer present, suggesting that transient effects may have been reduced.
