Had an accident while pursuing the leash of a runaway pup during which my knee gave out and I crashed head-first into a steel garage door. My head hit a corner bracket fairly hard, but thankfully I had a ball-cap on which mitigated the damage somewhat.

Is there any risk to the integrity of the transplant?
