Abstract 107: Extracranial to Intracranial Flow through Flaps
نویسندگان
چکیده
PURPOSE: Venous compromise is the most common reason for perioperative free flap complications. The dependent nature of the lower extremity likely increases this risk, especially following significant lower extremity trauma with superficial or deep venous injury and immobilization of the soleal muscle venous pump. The benefit of a second venous anastomosis, however, remains unclear in lower extremity trauma free flap reconstruction and warrants further investigation.

Effects of extracranial carotid stenosis on intracranial blood flow.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The hemodynamic effects of extracranial carotid stenosis on intracranial blood flow are not well characterized. We sought to determine the impact of degree of stenosis, stenosis length, and residual lumen on intracranial blood flow in patients with extracranial carotid stenosis. METHODS Carotid stenosis patients who had undergone both vessel flow rate measurements using...
متن کاملHigh flow extracranial-to-intracranial brain bypass surgery.
High flow extracranial to intracranial (HF EC-IC) cerebral revascularisation may be necessary in the management of complex skull base tumours and intracranial aneurysms. Vascular reconstruction techniques, in addition to direct clip reconstruction, have been described since the first successful bypass more than 50 years ago. Bypass grafting can be considered high flow when a radial artery or th...
متن کاملInfluence of acetazolamide and CO2 on extracranial flow volume and intracranial blood flow velocity.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The vasomotor response can be tested by means of transcranial Doppler sonography. If a constant vessel diameter is assumed, the flow velocity changes will reflect blood flow volume changes. This hypothesis is difficult to verify. Simultaneous assessment of intracranial flow velocity and extracranial flow volume changes may solve this problem. METHODS We tested vasomotor...
متن کاملImaging in the diagnosis and follow-up evaluation of vertebral artery dissection.
The purpose of this report is to discuss the value of ultrasonographic examination in the diagnosis and follow-up evaluation of vertebral artery dissection. We collected data on 8 patients with 11 pathologic vessels: 9 were affected intracranially and 6 were affected extracranially. Four vessels were affected in both intracranial and extracranial segments. Extracranial color-flow duplex sonogra...
متن کاملCerebral blood flow after carotid occlusion and extracranial-intracranial bypass.
Eleven patients with occlusion of one internal carotid artery showed marked reduction of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) through the hemisphere on the affected side with high rCBF on the opposite side. Six of the patients had no surgery, during follow-up of 2 to 5 years. rCBF increased on both sides leaving a persisting asymmetry of rCBF. Five patients had extracranial-intracranial bypass; ...
