Traumatic and non-traumatic neurosurgical events can quickly lead to neurological damage and disability if emergency care is not provided in a timely manner. Pediatric neurosurgical conditions include head trauma, infections, vascular disease, and hydrocephalus. Pediatric neurosurgical emergencies represent a difficult problem in the emergency department because the etiology can be difficult to distinguish in children. This book covers neurosurgical emergencies, emergency management and resuscitation, treatment of neurotoxicity and fluid resuscitation in children. It includes various acute pediatric neurosurgical complications encountered in the emergency room and requiring immediate neurosurgical intervention.
