dc.description.abstractBrain stem is the most vital part of our body and is a transitional region of the brain that connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. Though, being small in size, it is full of indispensible functions such as the breathing, heart beat. Injury to the brain stem has similar effects as a brain injury, but it is more fatal. Use of the Glasgow Coma Score as a prognostic indicator of outcome in patients with head injuries is widely accepted in clinical practice. Traumatic brain stem edema in children is rare, but is associated with poor outcome. The question is that whether it is being aware of computerized tomography appearance of the posterior fossa when initial evaluating pediatric patients with head trauma at emergency clinics. Normal and edematous brain stem without an additional pathology are slightly different and not distinguished easily. On the other hand, brain stem edema should be promptly identified and appropriately treated in a short time.en_US
