Cerebral Herniation
Aka: Cerebral Herniation, Uncinate Herniation, Uncal Herniation, Brainstem Herniation, Brain Stem Herniation, Cerebellar Herniation, Transtentorial Herniation, Acute Severe Intracranial Pressure Management- See Also
- Causes
- Intracranial Mass
- Cerebral edema
- Intracranial Hemorrhage
- Mechanism
- Tentorium cerebelli divides supratentorial (Cerebrum) from infratentorial
- Peri-tentorium structures include Midbrain, CN III, medial Temporal Lobe
- Parasympathetic fibers (constrict pupil normally) lie on outside of CN III and are more easily injured
- Oculomotor Nerve (CN III) compression results in Pupil Dilation (Blown Pupil)
- Signs
- Unilateral, ipsilateral dilated pupil (Blown Pupil)
- Contralateral limb weakness or Hemiparesis
- Posturing
- Decorticate Posturing (arm flexion)
- Decerebrate Posturing (arm and leg extension)
- Management
- General measures
- See Increased Intracranial Pressure in Closed Head Injury
- Includes head of be elevation, airway and Ventilator management, Mannitol
- See Severe Head Injury Management
- See Status Epilepticus
- See Increased Intracranial Pressure in Closed Head Injury
- CNS Hemorrhage (acute Subdural Hematoma, Epidural Hematoma)
- General measures
