Previous studies have shown that cervical and thoracic kyphotic deformity increases spinal cord intramedullary pressure (IMP). Using a cadaveric model, the authors investigated whether posterior decompression can adequately decrease elevated IMP in severe deformities.Using an established was created 16 fresh human cadavers (8 8 thoracic). A single-level rostral laminotomy durotomy were performed to place intraparenchymal monitors at C-2, C4-5, C-7 study group T4-5, T7-8, T11-12 group....
OBJECTIVE This study is a retrospective case series involving C1-2 spinal cord stimulation in patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) under general endotracheal anesthesia. Currently, paddle lead placement an accepted practice, which provides effective cervical to ameliorate upper-extremity and sometimes lower-extremity symptoms experienced by CRPS. However, this technique must be performed anesthesia rather than awake or semiconscious state due intraoperative safety concerns...
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an endogenous dilator in the newborn cerebral circulation. The present study addressed hypothesis that CO attenuates pial arteriolar vasoconstriction caused by hypocapnia, platelet activating factor, and elevated blood pressure. Experiments used anesthetized piglets with implanted, closed cranial windows. Topical application of a metal porphyrin inhibitor heme oxygenase was to inhibit production CO. Chromium mesopophyrin increased response hypocapnia. constrictor...
Posterior fossa cystic lesions display a diagnostic challenge as the apparent simplistic image portrays vast array of pathological entities. We hereby present case mature teratoma posterior with atypical radiological appearance, in previously healthy 6-month old male, presenting increased head circumferences, non-communicating hydrocephalus. The lesion underwent en bloc resection, and infant was discharged home week later no neurological deficits. Follow-up MRI did not demonstrate any...
Despite optimal medical treatments for community-acquired bacterial meningitis (CABM), fatality rates are still significant, in part due to exaggerated inflammatory responses resulting elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). Decompressive craniectomy (DC) has not been commonly used ICP CABM. This report aims describe the use of DC as a last-tier therapy CABM by examining our case study along with existing literature and consequentially establish institutional guidelines appropriate use. A 22...
