Posterior cerebral artery infarction from middle cerebral artery infarction.
BACKGROUND While it is known that posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarction may simulate middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction, the frequency and localization of this occurrence are unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of PCA infarction mimicking MCA infarction and the territory of the PCA most commonly involved in this simulation. DESIGN We studied 202 patients with isolated in...
متن کاملPosterior spinal artery infarct.
Acute medullary syndrome developed in a patient in whom glue had been inadvertently injected into the right posterior radiculomedullary artery during endovascular occlusion of a spinal dural arteriovenous fistula at T-11. MR imaging 40 days after the procedure showed signal changes and contrast enhancement in the posterior and right lateral column at T10-11. Circumscribed signal changes in the ...
متن کاملClentiazem reduces infarct size in rabbit middle cerebral artery occlusion.
We assessed the value of pretreatment with clentiazem (8-chlorodiltiazem), a diltiazem derivative with cerebroselective properties, on the consequences of surgical occlusion of the middle cerebral artery via a transorbital approach in 38 rabbits. Nineteen rabbits received 1.7 (n = 5), 5 (n = 8), or 15 (n = 6) mg/kg clentiazem orally four times a day for 24 hours before and 48 hours after occlus...
متن کاملSpontaneous calcific cerebral embolus from a calcific aortic stenosis in a middle cerebral artery infarct.
Calcific emboli from a calcific aortic stenosis is an uncommon event, usually following local trauma, as from cardiac surgery or left heart catheterization or as a sequel to bacterial endocarditis. We report what we believe to be the first case of a spontaneous calcareous emboli demonstrated by cranial computed tomography. In this patient, systemic hypertension and mild aortic insufficiency may...
متن کاملHuman C-reactive protein increases cerebral infarct size after middle cerebral artery occlusion in adult rats.
Human C-reactive protein (CRP), the classic acute phase plasma protein, increases in concentration after myocardial infarction and stroke. Human CRP binds to ligands exposed in damaged tissue and can then activate complement and its proinflammatory functions. In contrast, rat CRP, which binds to similar ligands, does not activate complement. In the present study, systemic complement depletion w...
