Popis: Background This study compared the effect of conventional doses of mannitol alone versus combined lower doses of mannitol-hypertonic saline on brain debulking during elective craniotomies.Patients and methods Sixty participants aged 18–60 years, ASA class I or II, who were scheduled for elective supratentorial brain tumor surgery, were randomly separated into 2 equal groups. Group (M) received 5 ml/kg of 20% mannitol at the onset of the surgical incision over 15 min. Group (MH) received 2.5 ml/kg of 20% mannitol plus 2.5 ml/kg 3% hypertonic saline (HTS) at the onset of the surgical incision over 15 min. Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), brain relaxation score, serum lactate, electrolytes, and surgeon’s satisfaction were measured.Results Both groups yielded similar results concerning demographic and tumor characteristics. The Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) was considerably lower in group MH compared to group M just before and immediately after dural incision (p =
