BACKGROUND
This prospective study was accomplished with 14 patients, 10 women and 4 men, where some pre-, intra- and immediate postoperative parameters of hemostasis were analyzed and compared to a control group of normal individuals.
METHODS
The patients included in this study were admitted to the
To clarify the effect of intravascular volume expansion on cerebral blood flow (CBF) in patients after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), we performed 55 pairs of regional CBF measurements using the xenon-133 inhalation method before and after volume expansion in 35 patients with ruptured cerebral
OBJECTIVE
Complete anatomic obliteration remains difficult to achieve with endovascular treatment of wide-necked aneurysms using Guglielmi detachable platinum coils (GDCs). Ion implantation is a physicochemical surface modification process resulting from the impingement of a high-energy ion beam.
OBJECTIVE
Both low serum calcium and magnesium levels have been associated with the extent of bleeding in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage, suggesting hypocalcemia- and hypomagnesemia-induced coagulopathy as a possible underlying mechanism. We hypothesized that serum albumin-corrected total
BACKGROUND
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), a significant cause of hemorrhagic stroke, continues to have poor prognosis. Early diagnosis and treatment are key to improving outcomes. Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and aSAH are
There is both in vitro and clinical evidence that high-dose propofol can inhibit mitochondrial respiration, resulting in metabolic acidosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of propofol anesthesia on the acid-base status in neurosurgical patients with large amount of normal
Anticipating to get some new informations about the cerebral circulations of the comatous patients, two kinds of radioisotopic techniques were combined and applied to twelve unconscious patients of various etiologies. The first step was the conventional gas clearance method using xenon 133 as the
Microsurgical suturing is the standard for cerebral bypass surgery, a technique where temporary occlusion is usually necessary. Non-occlusive techniques such as excimer laser-assisted non-occlusive anastomosis (ELANA) have certainly widened the spectrum of treatment of complex cerebrovascular
We experienced perioperative management of a patient with Quincke's edema who underwent clipping of ruptured intracranial aneurysm. At the time of presentation, he complained of lip and tongue swelling. We administered dl-chlorpheniramine malate and tranexamic acid perioperatively to prevent further
Moderate hypothermia is often used for cerebral protection during anesthesia for cerebral aneurysm clipping. No reliable, rapid, and practical noncardiopulmonary bypass methods for the induction of hypothermia to core temperatures <34 degrees C have been reported. We assessed the effects of IV
BACKGROUND
An analysis of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in a national sample of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients receiving long-term dialysis has not been reported. It is often assumed that patients with ADPKD are not at increased risk of ICH after starting dialysis. We
OBJECTIVE
Stent-assisted coiling is routinely used for the endovascular treatment of complex or wide-neck intracranial aneurysms. However, in-stent thrombosis, thromboembolic events, and ischemic complications remain a major concern associated with stent implants. Therefore, a novel low-profile
