    Notes: Summary Acute traumatic subdural haematoma suspected of extending over an entire hemisphere must be treated with all speed. To obviate unnecessary skin incisions and subsequent craniectomies and craniotomies during the operation, we think it advantageous to plan a series of burrholes at set points in order to: a) begin to clear the haematoma; b) assess its extent and possible origin; c) decide whether a hemicranial or smaller craniotomy is called for.

    Notes: Summary Of the 510 patients with pituitary adenoma treated surgically at our hospital in the period 1956–1984 319 were treated by the microsurgical technique, in the period 1973–1984, 235 by transsphenoidal approach and 84 by subfrontal-pterional approach. The transsphenoidal route was used almost exclusively in microadenomas, in intrasellar adenomas, in suprasellar adenomas with midline development, in adenomas invading the sphenoidal sinus and in haemorrhagic adenomas with considerable suprasellar development. In some giant adenomas the transsphenoidal route was used in a first stage operation for debulking the tumour, later removed by transcranial route. The latter route was preferred in large adenomas and especially in adenomas with laterosellar development. In some patients with PRL secreting adenomas post-operative treatment with bromocriptine proved useful when the hormone levels failed to noramlize. Post-operative radiotherapy was of value in invasive adenomas and in cases in which tumour removal was not radical.

    Keywords: Carotid endarterectomy ; extracranial to intracranial by-pass ; temporary shunt ; carotid artery occlusion
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary 23 patients with unilateral internal carotid artery stenosis (〉70%) and contralateral internal carotid artery occlusion in the neck are reported. The symptoms are referable to the side of the occlusion in 13 cases (57%), to the side of stenosis in 7 cases (30%) and non-localizing in 3 cases (13%). All 23 patients had a carotid endarterectomy performed on the side of the stenotic lesion. There was no operative mortality. Late neurological symptomatology after surgery was referable to the side of stenosis in 13% and to the side of occlusion in 9%. The authors consider that, in cases of significant stenosis (greater than 70%) of an internal carotid artery with a contralateral occlusion, preference should always be given to endarterectomy of the stenotic side, reserving extra-intracranial by-pass of the occluded side for patients who remain symptomatic after endarterectomy of the stenotic side.

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The case is described of a 52 year old patient admitted for a cauda equina compression syndrome (flaccid paraplegia of the lower limbs, bilateral lumbar and sciatic pains, urinary incontinence) of rapid onset and due to narrowing of the lumbar canal from tabetic arthropathy. These vertebral manifestations occur in a low percentage of tabetic arthropathies, which are relatively rare, and are not often accompanied by severe neurological disturbances. Decompressive laminectomy afforded rapid and lasting relief.

    Congenital stenosis of lumbar spinal canal: Comparison of results of surgical treatment for this and other causes of lumbar syndrome (1978)

    Keywords: Congenital stenosis ; Spondylosis ; Disc herniation ; Radiculography

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The operative results in 37 consecutive patients suffering from developmental stenosis of the lumbar spinal canal, compared with those in spondylosis and disc herniations, are discussed. The diagnostic certainty of stenosis, suspected on the bases of clinical and radiographic data, is reached only at the operating table. To judge the usefulness of the operation we have considered not only the patients' verdicts, but also the improvements in neurological signs and the appearance of new deficits. Satisfactory results are around 80%, slightly less good with stenosis than with the other causes of lumbar syndrome. Radiographic study with contrast medium is mandatory. Dimer-X has been used with very clear radiographic findings and very few complications. Operating technique is also described: a wide laminectomy with facetectomy is advised. The great importance of early physiotherapy is emphasized.

    Prognostic value of early somatosensory evoked potentials during carotid surgery: Relationship with electroencephalogram, stump pressure and clinical outcome (1987)

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The authors have reported on the prognostic value of continuous monitoring of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) in a survey of 25 patients who underwent carotid surgery. SEP recordings were correlated with the EEG, stump pressure (SP) values and clinical outcome. A non-cephalic reference was used for SEP recordings to allow the analysis of both subcortical and cortical components. During surgery the conduction time between SEP peaks relating to the subcortical components remained stable or showed minimum variations in all patients. During carotid clamping, SEP variations were observed in 9 out of 25 cases (36%). The application of an intraluminal shunt was accompanied by the return to normal values in 7 out of 9 patients. In the remaining two cases SEP abnormalities continued post-operatively and were accompanied by new neurological deficits. EEG changes during carotid clamping were associated with SEP modifications in 6 out of 7 cases, although they were not always correlated. Results confirm that SEP recordings provide useful data concerning the function of the CNS in anaesthetized patients and that, being sensitive to CBF changes, SEP monitoring acts as an indicator of cerebral ischaemia.

    Anterior displacement of the mandible for better exposure of the distal segment of the extracranial carotid artery (1987)

    Keywords: Extracranial internal carotid artery ; anterior displacement of the mandible ; vascular malformations ; atheromatous plaques

    Notes: Summary Anterior displacement of the mandible (ADM) was performed in 34 patients undergoing surgery for malformations or atheromatous lesions of the distal segment of the extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA). This procedure greatly facilitates surgical access to the upper cervical region and has several advantages over mandibulotomy-mandibulectomy, namely: A shorter operating time, sparing of the inferior alveolar nerve and of the mandibular branch of cranial nerve VII, with no need for post-operative immobilization of the mandible. ADM permits the correction of ICA lesions extending as far as the first cervical vertebra. For lesions extending into the carotid canal ADM needs to be supplemented by various other procedures via the base of the skull.

    Malignant monstrocellular brain tumours (1989)

    Notes: Summary A series of 42 cases of monstrocellular brain tumour (MBT) who received surgery over a 34 year period is reviewed with the aim of gaining more understanding of the biology of this oncotype. A case of benign pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma was identified among the cases and is discussed in another paper. In this series, as in most others taken from the literature, MBTs were more frequent in young subjects (55% were under 50 years of age and 17% were children) and presented as a superficially located (63%), often sharply circumscribed (42%) mass. The mean survival time for 24 patients treated by surgery and radiotherapy (RT) was 57 weeks compared to 32 weeks for 12 treated by surgery alone (p 〈 0.02). Patients younger and older than 50 years showed the same survival and the slightly better course of children did not reach statistical significance. Besides postoperative RT, the only other factor that showed a significantly positive influence on survival was the presence of a definite lymphocytic infiltration (LI) in the tumour (p 〈 0.05). This result confirms our previous study on the prognostic influence of LI in glioblastoma (GB). Actually, we noted that the prolonged survival of both MBT and GB patients exhibiting a definite LI (67% and 11.5%, respectively, in the two series) was strikingly similar. We conclude that MBT is a peculiar oncotype with a probably better prognosis than GB in the majority of cases. Lymphocytes seem to play a major prognostic role and giant-monstrous cells are indirectly implicated, reasonably enhancing the host's immune response by magnifying the antigenic stimulus.
