چکیده

This paper reviews the literature of the brain retraction injury during the last century. The review focused on the instrument characteristic as well as the physiopathological and histopathological damage of the brain induced by brain retraction. It was found that lesions were induced by cerebral ischemia. We conclude that a better monitoring system needs to be developed to avoid brain injury.

Brain retraction technique using gelatin sponge in the subtemporal approach.

Wide exposure of lesions during the subtemporal approach often leads to temporal lobe injury caused by excessive retraction. A brain retraction technique using gelatin sponge pieces was developed to minimize intraoperative brain retraction during the subtemporal approach. After aspirating cerebrospinal fluid and slackening the temporal lobe, 2-3 pieces of gelatin sponge are inserted between the...

Keyhole Neurosurgery: Primum non nocere

Neurosurgeons have endeavored to make surgery safe for the patient ever since the inception of neurosurgery as a specialty. The limited capacity of the neural tissue to withstand sustained retraction coupled with rigid covering of the brain has been the major limitation in brain surgery. Besides the lesion itself, the surgical approach to it often results in poor outcome due to brain retraction...

Predicting unconsciousness from a pediatric brain injury threshold.

The objective of this study was to utilize tissue deformation thresholds associated with acute axonal injury in the immature brain to predict the duration of unconsciousness. Ten anesthetized 3- to 5-day-old piglets were subjected to nonimpact axial rotations (110-260 rad/s) producing graded injury, with periods of unconsciousness from 0 to 80 min. Coronal sections of the perfusion-fixed brain ...

Surgical brain injury: prevention is better than cure.

Neurosurgical procedures can cause inevitable brain damage resulting from the procedure itself. Unavoidable cortical and parenchymal incisions, intraoperative hemorrhage, brain lobe retraction and thermal injuries from electrocautery can cause brain injuries attributable exclusively to the neurosurgical operations and collectively referred to as surgical brain injury (SBI). This particular brai...
