Corticosteroids will be used to treat brain tumor to reduce cerebral edema.

The anti-inflammatory substance corticosteroid, sometimes known as steroids, is a man-made synthetic drug used and recommended for a variety of illnesses. By lowering the production of specific chemicals, they reduce inflammation in the body.

There are several types of corticosteroids, including:

  • oral steroids
  • injections
  • inhalers
  • topical steroids

In cerebral edema, the brain swells. It occurs when there is excessive buildup of fluid, commonly referred to as edema, in the brain's intracellular or extracellular regions. Cerebral edema could happen, too, when a person has a brain tumor.

Effects of cerebral edema include decreased nerve conduction, elevated pressure inside the skull, and the potential eventual direct compression of brain tissue and blood vessels.
