Nitric Oxide in Brain Contusion
Trauma to the brain is a leading cause of death and disability. The primary injury initiates a cascade of biochemical reactions in the brain that causes further neuronal damage, a process referred to as secondary brain injury.

MTBI is known as a condition with self-limited symptoms; however, it could cause some structural abnormalities of brain and become complicated.

متن کاملSurgical strategies for neurological function preservation in severe brain contusion.
AIM Traditional surgical strategies for severe brain contusion are constantly associated with variable degree of postoperative neurological dysfunction, which is in part attributed to the location and severity of contusion. The purpose of this study was to compare and evaluate these current surgical strategies, with an emphasis on neurological function preservation. MATERIAL AND METHODS A ret...
متن کاملIntensive care management in brain contusion with microdialysis technique.
Arq Neuropsiquiatr 2012;70(8):637-644 640 We also highlight the fact that this unusual presentation of dystonia is almost indistinguishable from essential BSM, except by the non-involvement of the orbicularis oculi muscles. To best of our knowledge, this is the first report of sole frontalis, corrugator and procerus dystonia. Recently, Hirota et al.5 reported two cases of dystonic frowning. The...
