Abstract
Dexamethasone has no significant effect on the volume of peritumoral edema in glial tumor and metastasis. Moreover, dexamethasone increases the fluid movements in low grade gliomas and metastases, decreases in high grade gliomas. However, more comprehensive clinical studies are needed to show the effects of dexamethasone on brain tumors and peritumoral edema.
