 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 5 Post-traumatic diffuse brain swelling pool of dynamic change and prognosis of Central Of: Wu Ting ago, Du Feng trunk, Wang Feng, Xu Qiang, Sun Meng Fang [Keywords:] brain injury with diffuse brain swelling hernia ring Pond Center Often encountered after traumatic brain injury showed no significant imaging of intracranial space-occupying hematoma and midline shift of the diffuse brain swelling, such patients are often severe, progress rapidly, and the prognosis is poor, is still the head trauma treatment problems. Although magnetic resonance imaging of diffuse axonal injury caused by brain swelling has important diagnostic and prognostic value [1], but due to check a long time not widely promote the use of expensive equipment. CT scan showed ring cistern important bearing on the prognosis of brain injury [2-3], and the Central pool has been considered as observed changes in severe head injury and the prognosis of the disease an important indicator of change. of from June 2002 to November 2008 23 patients admitted to such In the course of treatment, the use of CT scan changes in the dynamic observation of ambient cistern, ambient cistern observed changes in the relationship with the prognosis, are as follows. 1 Clinical data 1.1 General Information of this group 16 males and 7 females, aged 16 to 63 years old, average 32.1 years old. The causes of injury: road accident in 15 cases, fall injury in 5 cases, combat injuries in 3 cases. Trauma to the hospital treatment time was 10 min to 72 h, varying degrees of coma on admission, GCS score 3 points in 4 cases, 4 to 6 minutes and 11 cases of 7 points in 8 cases. 1.2 CT performance and results of the patients underwent emergency admission head CT, straight after 1, 3, 5, 7 days, CT scan review. CT scan prompted the first line of diffuse brain swelling, occlusion of a rings pool 3 cases, stenosis in 12 cases, 8 cases of normal. CT Central pool continuous review occlusion or sten
