Anatomy
Meningeal arteries
Lie between the dura and the internal surface of the skull in the epidural space. Overlying skull fractures can lacerate these arteries and causean epidural hematoma
The most commonly injured meningeal vessel is the middle meningeal artery, which is located over the temporal fossa. An expanding hematoma from arterial injury in this location can lead to rapid deterioration and death
Physiology
Intracranial Pressure
Elevation of intracranial pressure (ICP) can reduce cerebral perfusion and cause or exacerbate ischemia
The normal ICP for patients in the resting state is approximately 10 mm Hg. Pressures greater than 22 mm Hg, particularly if sustained and refractory to treatment, are associated with poor outcomes
