Özet

AIM: Brain edema developing due to central nervous system trauma is still a significant reason of mortality and morbidity. There is still no definite approach for the medical treatment of brain edema despite many clinical and laboratory studies in recent years. We therefore investigated the effect of proanthocyanidin, an antioxidant agent, on brain edema in this study.
