Delayed neurologic deficits, paraplegia and paraparesis, are devastating complications after repair of a descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA). A treatment protocol has not been established, although strategies such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage, maintaining blood pressure and medication have been described. Cerebrospinal drain status /oxygen delivery/patient s...
While Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common cause of bacterial meningitis in adults, cases of pneumococcal brain abscess have rarely been reported. We describe a case of otogenic brain abscess caused by S. pneumoniae that developed in a patient who was receiving ciprofloxacin for the empirical treatment of otitis media. We also review 23 additional cases of pyogenic brain abscess caused b...
Background & Aim: Stroke is the most common neurological disease and the first cause of disability in the world. Since Elaeagnus Angustifolia contains antioxidant compounds and has been used as a treatment for many diseases, the effect of aqueous extract of Elaeagnus Angustifolia on infarct tissue volume and neurologic deficits in rat stroke model was investigated. Methods: In this experimen...
Safe, effective treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) remains a challenge despite advances in endovascular technology, surgical technique, and stereotactic radiosurgery. Patients typically present between 20 and 40 years of age with hemorrhage, seizures, neurological deficits, or headaches (8). AVMs have an annual hemorrhage rate of 1 to 4% and a rehemorrhage rate of 6 to 18% in...
OBJECTIVES The short-term results of subclavian artery cannulation (SC) for acute type-A dissection repair have been reported to be superior in regard to mortality and neurological outcomes when compared to femoral cannulation (FC). This study evaluates the long-term results of subclavian artery cannulation versus femoral cannulation for repair of acute type-A dissection with particular regard ...
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease, which affects 1% of the population. Hands and feet are most commonly involved followed by the cervical spine. The spinal column consists of vertebrae stabilized by an intricate network of ligaments. Especially in the upper cervical spine, rheumatoid arthritis can cause degeneration of these ligaments, causing laxity, instability...
Spinal cord injuries are amongst the most dangerous injuries, leading to high mortality and morbidity. Injured patients are occasionally faced with life-threatening complications and quality-of-life changing neurological deficits. Thoracic and cervical spinal segments are the most effected sites of injury and a wide range of complications including paraplegia, respiratory and cardiovascular com...
Objective(s) Opioid abuse is still remained a major mental health problem, a criminal legal issue and may cause ischemic brain changes including stroke and brain edema. In the present study, we investigated whether spontaneously withdrawal syndrome might affect stroke outcomes. Materials and Methods Addiction was induced by progressive incremental doses of morphine over 7 days. Behavioral si...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The value of acute cerebral blood flow measurements in stroke prognosis is controversial. No previous study has determined whether acute perfusion deficits independently add to a validated clinical prognostic score. We aimed to compare the value of acute hypoperfusion deficits with a quantitative clinical score in stroke prognosis and to correlate the changes in perfusion...
The hallmark of concussion injuries of the nervous system is the rapid and complete resolution of neurological deficits. Cerebral concussion has been well studied, both clinically and experimentally. In comparison, spinal cord concussion (SCC) is poorly understood. The clinical and radiological features of 19 SCC injuries in the general population are presented. Spinal cord injuries were classi...
