  • Title: Brain edema after an experimental missile wound.
    Author: Carey ME, Sarna GS, Farrell JB.
    Journal: Adv Neurol; 1990; 52():301-5. PubMed ID: 2396527.
    Abstract:
    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.
