OBJECTIVE
Complications due to brain edema and breakdown of blood brain barrier are an important factor affecting the treatment effects of patients with severe carotid stenosis. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of ischemic postconditioning on brain edema and disruption of blood
The paper discuss the surgical techniques and clinical curative effects of CEA (Carotid Endarterectomy, CEA) under a microscope via anterior cervical triangle posterior vena jugularisinterna approach combining with suspended carotid artery on the treatment of high level and complex carotid artery
This retrospective study was aimed to investigate the association between preoperative left ventricular (LV) cardiac function and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary edema (PE) in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Most patients undergoing CEA for carotid artery stenosis have
Carotid endarterectomy, especially eversion carotid endarterectomy (ECEA), is a standard treatment of carotid artery stenosis but continues to have deficiencies. We have described a modified ECEA technique that focuses on the quality of life (QoL), called Q-modified eversion carotid Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) and neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) are rare complications of an acute ischemic stroke. In particular, TCM and NPE, following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) are extremely rare. In general, TCM- and NPE-associated ischemic strokes are caused by excess The effects of ethomersole (50 mg/kg orally during 10 days) on local cerebral blood flow and cerebral tissue impedance were investigated in rats after left carotid artery ligation and right carotid artery narrowing (blood flow was decreased to 50%). Under these conditions, ethomersole accelerated
Background: Intracerebral steal phenomenon (ISP) is a rare complication following surgical treatment of carotid stenosis. However, the factors responsible remain unknown. We described the rear case of the ISP who had vasogenic edema and
In seven eyes of six patients (four men and two women, 55 to 72 years old), with macular edema associated with severe carotid artery stenosis, the ipsilateral carotid obstruction was 90% or more. Concomitant fundus signs, such as midperipheral retinal hemorrhages, retinal arterial narrowing, and
BACKGROUND
Ischemic stroke and glioblastoma multiforme have similar features on anatomic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and thus may require a surgical biopsy for a definitive diagnosis.
METHODS
A 55-year-old male complained of dysphasia for 4 weeks and continuous deterioration for 5 days.
We report a case of a 50-year-old woman with traumatic dissection of the right common carotid artery secondary to attempted suicidal hanging. Initial examination showed marks of strangulation on the neck, facial edema, and multiple conjunctival petechiae accompanied by difficulty in breathing and
BACKGROUND
Reperfusion (or hyperperfusion) syndrome may be a possible complication of carotid artery endarterectomy or angioplasty.
METHODS
We report the case of a 54-year-old man who underwent a right carotid endarterectomy for an asymptomatic carotid stenosis and developed reperfusion syndrome a
Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) is characterized radiographically by magnetic resonance imaging as white matter hyperintensities, which reflect cerebral edema. These changes are typically restricted to the parietal and occipital lobes, and are usually quite symmetric. We
OBJECTIVE
Cerebral hyperperfusion after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) impairs cognitive function and is often detected on cerebral blood flow (CBF) imaging. The purpose of the present study is to investigate structural brain damage seen on magnetic resonance (MR) images obtained in patients with
Carotid endarterectomy is associated with significant changes in cerebral hemodynamics. In the chronically ischemic brain of patients with carotid stenosis, this can result in postoperative development of 'cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome'. This can cause severe cerebral edema, intracerebral
Background: The cholesterol embolization syndrome (CES) results from the distal embolization of cholesterol crystals from atheromatous plaques in large vessels such as the aorta and results in multi-organ damage.background CASE
