Progress In Study Of Cerebral Edema Secondary To Cerebral Hemorrhage

Intracerebral hemorrhage refers to a category of non-injurious brain parenchymal or intraventricular hemorrhage.Intracerebral hemorrhage,as a common type of cerebrovascular disease,can be divided into primary intracerebral hemorrhage and secondary intracerebral hemorrhage.After Intracerebral hemorrhage occurs,in addition to the primary damage to the surrounding brain tissue caused by direct compression of the hematoma or enlargement of the hematoma,a series of secondary injuries are also closely related to impaired neurological function after Intracerebral hemorrhage.In all kinds of secondary brain injury,Intracerebral edema can be regarded as the most important and the most common factor.It not only aggravates the oppression of initial hematoma,but also may cause irreversible damage to adjacent brain tissue.Current research shows that factors including hematoma occupying effect,coagulation cascade,red blood cells’ degradation products,various inflammatory responses,changes in blood-brain barrier permeability,etc.all participate in the formation of Intracerebral edema.This review hopes to help understand and deal with the clinical work by understanding the mechanism and treatment of intracerebral edema.
