Dar Background: Post-craniectomy hydrocephalus in patients with intracranial hypertension is becoming a major concern for neurosurgeons because of the increasing number of hospital admissions for head trauma, stroke and other...

... craniectomy has also been shown to provide substantial relief from intracranial hypertension with improved neurological outcomes and decreased morbidity [ 10,16,17 ]. The most recent pediatric studies analyzing ICP reduction and outcomes are from Cho et al. [ 10 ] in 1995, Taylor et al. [ 17 ] in 2001...

Hayward Remodelling the cranial vault in an attempt to increase the intracranial volume and thus control intracranial hypertension, whilst at the same time improving the patient’s appearance, has been the mainstay...

... have failed to control high ICP. Posttraumatic CSF circulation disruption, white matter cerebral edema, and intracranial venous hypertension can be treated with this modality in the absence of focal mass lesions.

... was an accurate predictor of outcome. It seems likely that these children are a subset of those previously defined as having resistant intracranial hypertension and that, as a group, they may have benefited from pentobarbital administration. It is also apparent that, in this group, low CPP was not indicative...

... strategy of detecting intracranial hypertension. In the present study, we further explored the two strategies of assessing ICP curves in children with craniosynostosis, namely either by calculation of the mean ICP or by computation of the accurate numbers of ICP elevations according to a new computer...
