Microscopic Examination Of Postcapillary Cerebral Venues In Hemorrhagic Stroke

Hemorrhagic stroke and cerebral paragonimiasis.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes of 10 patients with hemorrhagic cerebral paragonimiasis (CP), and we evaluated the influence of Paragonimus infection on cerebrovascular damage. METHODS Ten patients (7 male and 3 female; median age 15.7 years, range 4-46 years) with hemorrhagic CP were diagnosed betw...

Evaluation of hemorrhagic infarction in stroke patients

Background: Hemorrhagic Transformation of Infarct (HTI) is an important finding which has been reported mainly in cardio embolic strokes . Although clinical status of the patients is not often deteriorated , however decision making for anticoagulation is difficult in HTI patients. The goal of this survey was to determine the prevalence and the cause of HTI in patients in the Vali Asr hospi...

Morphological study of experimental cerebral vasospasm. I: Electron microscopic examination of experimental cerebral vasospasm.

Microscopic aspects of macrophage system cells in hemorrhagic stroke in humans.

Stroke is an important public health issue because it has high morbidity and mortality rates. In addition, it has one of the highest rates of disability in adults. Recent data show that macrophage system cells, especially microglial cells, are involved both in neuroprotective processes and in the neurotoxicity, depending on the type and extent of the brain damage. In our study, using histology ...

Morphological study on experimental cerebral vasospasm. II. Fluorescence microscopic examination on experimental cerebral vasospasm.

Basilar arteries with experimental vasospasm were studies histochemically using a catecholamine fluorescence technique in 15 cats. Fluorescence microscopy of normal vessels revealed abundant catecholamine fluorescence in the adventitia and in close contact with the media, but none within the media. Experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage resulted in depletion of catecholamine fluorescence in the a...
