[Mechanisms of development of brain edema in neurosurgical pathology].

As many as 120 neurosurgical patients were examined after the excision of hemispheric gliomas, basal and subtentorial tumors. Based on an the computer-aided analysis biochemical and clinical data, attempts have been made to unify the mechanisms responsible for brain edema development in patients with neurosurgical pathology. In the early postoperative period, brain edema occurs in 95% of neurosurgical patients.
