Altered cerebral hemodynamics and metabolism in Takayasu's arteritis with neurological deficits.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Takayasu's arteritis is a nonspecific arteritis involving major cerebral arteries. The aim of our study is to examine cerebral hemodynamics and metabolism in Takayasu's arteritis with neurologic symptoms. METHODS We measured cerebral blood flow and metabolism using positron emission tomography in seven patients (14 to 59 years of age) with Takayasu's arteritis who devel...

no significant differences in the values of cerebral blood flow, oxygen extraction fraction, and cerebral blood volume in the infarcted and noninfarcted hemisphere. By contrast, the value of cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen in the infarcted hemisphere was markedly reduced (1.87 mL/100 mL per minute, P<.O1) compared with controls. Mean transit time in the infarcted hemisphere was significantly...
متن کاملPre-pulseless and Pulseless Takayasus' Arteritis
The Confused Terminology and Changing Concept of Takayasu's Arteritis In 1908 the Japanese opihthalmologist, Takayasu, reported an unusual wreath-like vascular anastomosis surrounding the optic discs of a young female patient who was nearly iblind, biut who showed 'no general physical changes'. He was unalble to explain this abnormality. Laiter a colleague, Onishi, referred to a similar case wh...

This disease has remained enigmatic since its ocular signs were first described in a young woman, by Japanese ophthalmologist Mikito Takayasu in 1908 [though it ha...
متن کاملNonpulsatile cerebral perfusion in patient with acute neurological deficits.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE An extremely low pulsatile cerebral perfusion can result in a massive cerebral infarction and poor outcome. We report a patient who had complete recovery from initial neurological deficits in spite of nonpulsatile perfusion in the middle cerebral artery. METHODS We used carotid duplex and transcranial Doppler to evaluate cerebral hemodynamics and the National Institutes...
