TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Brain edema after an experimental missile wound JO - Advances in Neurology A1 - Carey, M. E. A1 - Sarna, G. S. A1 - Farrell, J. B. SP - 301 EP - 305 VL - 52 IS - N2 - We have developed an experimental model to study cerebral pathophysiology associated with a missile wound to the brain. After wounding, vasogenic edema occurs about the missile wound track in the injured cerebral hemisphere. This edema is relatively mild, does not appear life-threatening, peaks at 48 hr after wounding, and spontaneously resolved in 1 week.
