Popis: Brain edema is a common problem after stroke. Elevation of intracranial pressure causes high mortality anad morbidity rates by impairing cerebral perfusion and causing cerebral herniation. The neurologist who take care of acute stroke patients should guess the possibility of brain edema, take precautions for the development of brain edema, diagnose intracranial pressure elevation and cerebral herniation both clinically and raidologically, and treat brain edema rapidly. This expert opinion is a consensus declaration of 60 Neurologists who work on cerebrovascular diseases and neurocritical care under Turkish Society of Cerebrovascular Diseases.
