Comprehensive cognitive and cerebral hemodynamic evaluation after cranioplasty
Decompressive craniectomy is an established procedure to lower intracranial pressure and can save patients' lives. However, this procedure is associated with delayed cognitive decline and cerebral hemodynamics complications. Studies show the benefits of cranioplasty beyond cosmetic aspects, including brain protection, and functional and cerebrovascular aspects, but a detailed description of the...
متن کاملFatal cerebral swelling immediately after cranioplasty: A case report
BACKGROUND Cranioplasty is a standard neurosurgical procedure which is performed after decompressive craniotomy. Fatal complications associated with this procedure are not well documented. Here, we report a case of fatal cerebral swelling after cranioplasty and discuss the possible mechanism of this complication. CASE DESCRIPTION A 64-year-old man was admitted with the diagnosis of cerebral h...
متن کاملCerebral hemodynamic changes after carotid angioplasty and stenting.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Carotid angioplasty stent placement (CAS) is an accepted alternative to endarterectomy. However, little is known about its effect on cerebral hemodynamics. We prospectively studied the early and delayed hemodynamic changes after CAS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty patients underwent CAS for >or=70% internal carotid artery stenosis. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) was done befor...
متن کاملUnexpected Severe Cerebral Edema after Cranioplasty : Case Report and Literature Review
This report details a case of unexpected, severe post-operative cerebral edema following cranioplasty. We discuss the possible pathological mechanisms of this complication. A 50-year-old female was admitted to our department with sudden onset of stuporous consciousness. A brain computed tomography (CT) revealed a subarachnoid hemorrhage with intracranial hemorrhage and subdural hematoma. Emerge...
متن کاملHemodynamic variability and cerebrovascular control after transient cerebral ischemia.
We investigated if hemodynamic variability, cerebral blood flow (CBF) regulation, and their interrelationships differ between patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) and controls. We recorded blood pressure (BP) and bilateral middle cerebral artery flow velocity (MCAv) in a cohort of TIA patients (n = 17), and age-matched controls (n = 15). Spontaneous fluctuations in BP and MCAv were cha...
