Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is usually a benign and self-limited illness that befalls previously healthy individuals who ascend rapidly to high altitude without sufficient acclimatization. In its more severe forms, AMS can progress to a life-threatening condition in which pulmonary or cerebral edema can occur singly or in concert.

Great strides have been made in understanding the pathogenesis of cerebral edema. Treatment is usually successful, particularly with the newer modes of management (mannitol, steroids, hyperventilation); however, cerebral edema is occasionally resistant to all modes of therapy.

Seminars in Nephrology, 2001
Two major types of brain edema may be discriminated, characterized by intra- or extracellular fluid accumulation. Intracellular (cytotoxic) edema is found after cerebral ischemia, trauma, intoxications, and metabolic disorders. Pathogenetic mechanisms include (1) failure of active Na+ export via Na/K-ATPase because of energy shortage, (2) increased Na+-

Cerebral edema continues to plague clinicians caring for patients with acute catastrophic neurologic disease. The defect responsible for the accumulation of water in the brain appears to reflect loss of the strict permeability barrier of the cerebral vasculature.

High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2004
This review focuses on the epidemiology, clinical description, pathophysiology, treatment, and prevention of high altitude cerebral edema (HACE). HACE is an uncommon and sometimes fatal complication of traveling too high, too fast to high altitudes.

Neurosurgery, 1981
Hyperventilation, ventricular drainage, and mannitol remain the mainstays of the treatment of cerebral edema not amenable to or following surgical therapy. There appears to be good therapeutic rationale for the use of "low-dose" mannitol in more prolonged treatment of intracranial hypertension (Table 5.1). The beneficial effects of steroids, either in "

Cerebral edema complicating eclampsia
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2000This study was undertaken to describe and correlate clinical findings with computed tomographic and magnetic resonance imaging scan results in 10 women with eclampsia and widespread cerebral edema.This was a clinical descriptive study of 10 women with eclampsia and symptomatic cerebral edema who were encountered at Parkland Hospital from 1986 through ...
