Meningeal lymphatic dysfunction exacerbates traumatic brain injury pathogenesis

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious and poorly understood medical condition. Here, the authors show that TBI induces long-lasting deficits in brain lymphatic drainage. They report that defects in this drainage pathway provoke severe TBI pathogenesis that can be rescued with VEGF-C treatment.
