Brain Swelling and Death in Children with Cerebral Malaria NEJM 372:1126-1137, Seydel, K.B.,et al, 2015 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Increased brain volume was seen in children who died from cerebral malaria but was uncommon in those who did not die from the disease, a finding that suggests that raised intracranial pressure may contribute to a fatal outcome. The natural history indicates that increased intracranial pressure is transient in survivors.
