Özet

BACKGROUND: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) may be a cause of neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE). It is well known that lymphatic fluid draining by thoracic duct to lungs consists of many dangerous metabolites, degraded tissue particles, and microbiologic pathogens. However, not enough studies have investigated whether NPE causes septicemia or not. In this study, we retrospectively examined our experimental materials to determine whether there is a meaningful relationship between NPE and cerebral abscess formation.
