| Description | Neurosurgical illnesses or disorders are rare in pregnancy. Vascular pathologies, intracranial tumors, traumatic brain injury or disc herniation are the most common. Recognition of clinical signs, diagnosis and follow-up treatments can be difficult to manage regarding pregnancy. Vomiting or headache are typical symptoms for both pregnancy as well for increased intracranial pressure. As part of the diagnosis, we should avoid excess usage of radiological examinations. Therapeutic guidelines have not been clearly established; therefore, they are based only on retrospective studies or case reports. In our review article, we present the most common neurosurgical pathologies in pregnancy and their treatment. |
