Systemic temperature and paralysis after thoracoabdominal and descending aortic operations.
HYPOTHESIS Systemic temperature influences the development of neurologic deficits after aortic surgery. DESIGN Retrospective case-comparison study of prospectively collected data. SETTING Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS We examined spinal cord injury according to mild passive hypothermia (mean temperature, 36.5 degrees C; n = 25), moderate active hypothermia (temperat...
متن کاملFree acetylcholine in the cerebrospinal fluid after brain operations.
Bornstein (1946) demonstrated the presence of free acetylcholine in the cerebrospinal fluid of animals subjected to experimental head injury. Later, Tower and McEachern (1948) and Sachs (1957) showed the same in patients suffering from concussion of the brain. Tower and McEachern also demonstrated a correlation between the level of acetylcholine, changes in E.E.G. pattern, and the clinical stat...
متن کاملIntraoperative Changes in Cerebrospinal Fluid Gas Tensions Reflect Paraplegia During Thoracoabdominal Aortic Surgery: A Proof-of-Principle Study.
BACKGROUND In this study, gas tensions in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were prospectively evaluated as intraoperative markers for the detection of neurological deficits. METHODS Spinal fluid, serum, and heart lung machine (HLM) perfusate were monitored for gas tensions (po 2/pCo 2) and related parameters (pH, lactate, and glucose) during thoracoabdominal aortic repair and correlated with periope...
متن کاملEnterobius vermicularis in Cerebrospinal Fluid
Enterobius vermicularis is a nematod of large intestine in man. Extra intestinal localization of this parasite is rare. A 60 year old man was admitted to the hospital with the clinical manifestation of meningitis. In laboratory examination of cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F), the appearance was red, Albu-min level was high and the glucose showed normal value. Haematoxylin and Eosin stained slides pr...
متن کاملIntracerebellar hematoma following thoracoabdominal aortic repair: an unreported complication of cerebrospinal fluid drainage.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage is a routinely used adjunct in thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) surgery which may reduce the incidence of perioperative paraplegia by improving the spinal cord perfusion. However, a small but evident complication rate of lumbar drainage should be considered. We present two rare cases of intracerebellar hematoma possibly due to excessive CSF drainage aft...
