Papaverine-induced mydriasis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Five cases of ipsilateral pupillary dilatation that developed during local intraarterial infusion of papaverine are reported. All patients were being treated for symptomatic vasospasm secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage. In each case, the tip of the infusion catheter was positioned in the internal carotid artery in close proximity to the ostium of the ophthalmic artery. Pupillary dilatation in all patients readily resolved after termination of the infusion.

Facial nerve palsy after intracisternal papaverine application during aneurysm surgery--case report.
A 61-year-old woman suffered transient mydriasis and prolonged facial nerve palsy after intracisternal papaverine application subsequent to elective clipping of an unruptured middle cerebral artery aneurysm. The mydriasis resolved within 90 minutes, but the facial nerve dysfunction persisted for 2 months before complete recovery. Prolonged irrigation of the cisterns may have washed the papaveri...
متن کاملTopical papaverine as rescue therapy for vasospasm complicated by unsecured aneurysm.
Dear Editor, A 55-year-old female presented in 2010 with a World Federation of Neurosurgeons (WFNS) grade 3 subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). She had aneurysms of the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) (Fig.1A) and anterior choroidal arteries, plus a left pericallosal and anterior cerebral aneurysm (ACA). Clipping was delayed by emergent Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Coiling of the ACA aneurysm was u...
متن کاملMechanism of relaxant action of papaverine. Effect on caffeine-induced contraction of guinea pig taenia coli.
The mode of action of papaverine on smooth muscle relaxation was examined through analyzing its effects on caffeine-induced contraction of guinea pig taenia coli, which might be due to calcium ion mobilized from intracellular store sites. Caffeine contraction induced in normal solution at 32 degrees C was decreased in the presence of papaverine but increased after the removal of papaverine, and...
متن کاملEffects of papaverine on carbachol- and high K+-induced contraction in the bovine abomasum
The effects of papaverine on carbachol (CCh) -and high K(+)- induced contraction in the bovine abomasum were investigated. Papaverine inhibited CCh (1 µM) -and KCl (65 mM) -induced contractions in a concentration-dependent manner. Forskolin or sodium nitroprusside inhibited CCh-induced contractions in a concentration-dependent manner in association with increases in the cAMP or cGMP contents, w...
متن کاملPapaverine-induced inhibition of electrical and mechanical activity and calcium movements of rat ileal smooth muscle.
1. Papaverine, in the concentration range 50-150 microM, inhibited rhythmic spontaneous contraction and caused relaxation of KCl-induced contractures of rat ileal smooth muscle. 2. Spontaneous slow waves and spikes declined at low papaverine concentrations. 3. The normal 45Ca uptake of the ileum was reduced by papaverin. Although papaverine caused only a small inhibition of normal 45Ca efflux f...
