Acute Cerebral Infarction Caused by Cerebral Vasospasm Due to High-Voltage Electrical Injury
IMAGES were normal. Fluid therapy was initiated for the 45% electrical injury. While measuring the urine output, the amount of fluids was adjusted to maintain 1 mL/kg/hr. The second day after the injury, the patient had two generalized tonic clonic type seizures for about one minute. In the laboratory test performed after the seizure, the potassium was elevated to 5.2 mmol/L, and the other elec...
متن کاملDeath Due to Cerebral Vasospasm.
It is accepted by many that vasospasm occurring as a result of ruptured intracranial aneurysm may contribute to the death of the patient. In the present case, although widespread spasm in the intracranial circulation was demonstrated, no aneurysm could be found either in life or at necropsy. The cause of the spasm is not known but its effects on the brain were undoubtedly responsible for death....
متن کاملCerebral vasospasm with infarction.
Cerebral Vasospasm With Infarction • A case of intense unilateral cerebral vasospasm with appropriate neurological deficit following rupture of a posterior communicating aneurysm was followed with serial angiography. Associated with the initially intense spasm was subsequent regional hyperperfusion with early venous filling which disappeared as signs of focal cerebral atrophy ensued. These angi...
متن کاملPrevention of the Cerebral Vasospasm
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the dependence of the arterial contractions induced by different vasoactive agents upon intracellularly stored calcium in canine versus monkey cerebral arteries. The potency for inducing contractions in Ca -free media was in the order of 9,1 l-epithio-11,12metano-thromboxane A2 (STXAj) > prostaglandin F^ (PGF^) > > serotonin > k + in canine basil...
متن کاملInflammation, Cerebral Vasospasm, and Evolving Theories of Delayed Cerebral Ischemia
Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is a potentially lethal complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Recently, the symptomatic presentation of CVS has been termed delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), occurring as early as 3-4 days after the sentinel bleed. For the past 5-6 decades, scientific research has promulgated the theory that cerebral vasospasm plays a primary role in the pathology of...
