    Magnetic Resonance Tomography of Solid Spinal Cord Tumors with Extensive Secondary Syringomyelia

    Space-occupying lesions of the spinal cord and lower medulla oblongata still represent a clinical and diagnostic challenge to the neurosurgeon, and up until very recently a preoperative diagnosis of the tumor’...

    Influence of Body Position on Jugular Venous Oxygen Saturation, Intracranial Pressure and Cerebral Perfusion Pressure

    Elevation of the head as a common practice to reduce raised intracranial pressure (ICP) has been discussed controversially of late. Some investigators were able to show that besides lowering ICP head elevation...

    Monitoring of Jugular Venous Oxygen Saturation in Comatose Patients with Subarachnoid Haemorrhage and Intracerebral Haematomas

    To prevent secondary cerebral ischaemia in comatose patients it would be of great importance to assess cerebral blood flow. Recently monitoring of the jugular venous oxygen saturation (SJVO2) has been shown to co...

    Treatment of Traumatic Brain Edema by Multiple Doses of Mannitol

    Mannitol is frequently used to reduce elevated intracranial pressure often associated with brain edema. In cases of a damaged blood-brain barrier, however, mannitol might aggravate vasogenic cerebral edema, as...

    Dynamics of Posttraumatic Brain Swelling Following a Cryogenic Injury in Rats

    For evaluation of novel therapeutic regimens against brain edema in experimental models, it is important to know the temporal profile of edema formation. Since development of brain swelling and edema following...

    21-Aminosteroid U-74389F Reduces Vasogenic Brain Edema

    21 -Aminosteroids have been shown to attenuate neuronal damage and to improve neurological outcome after experimental ischemia. The aim of this study was to determine whether brain edema induced by a cryogenic...
