Abstract:
Hyponatremia is one of the common types of electrolyte disorders in neurosurgery. It is common in patients accepted surgeries, such as brain tumor surgery, pituitary surgery, subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury. Hyponatremia can easily lead to decreased levels of consciousness, seizures, and cerebral edema, therefore, it should be treated promptly to minimize brain damage. It is extremely important to correctly understand the causes of hyponatremia and accurately diagnose and treat. This review summarizes the recent advances in hyponatremia in neurosurgical patients.
