Introduction

It is well known that rapidly growing malignant brain tumors, either metastatic or gliomatous, are often associated with extensive peritumoral edema. Steroid administration has been widely accepted as an ameliorative treatment. In these situations, however, clinical response to steroids and other agents such as mannitol, is not always satisfactory. The different mechanisms by which these agents reduce cerebral edema may account for the variable responses observed. Cerebral edema may be intra or extra-cellular, and vascular factors may contribute to the pathogenesis.
