متن کاملVenous pressure measurements in vein of Galen aneurysms.
Venous pressures were measured within the vein of Galen aneurysm/straight sinus complex in 15 patients with Galenic arteriovenous fistulae and vein of Galen aneurysms. Pressures exceeded normal (less than 5 cm of H2O) in each instance, ranging between 9 and 55 cm of H2O. Measured values exceeding 20 cm of H2O were associated with an increased occurrence of brain calcification. Mean venous press...
