    Lumbar disc surgery and variations in C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and the complement split product C 3 d (1988)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 90 (1988), S. 42-44 
    Details
    ISSN: 0942-0940
    Keywords: Lumbar disc surgery ; erythrocyte sedimentation rate ; C-reactive protein ; disc space inflammation

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Lumbar disc surgery was performed in fifty consecutive patients and variation in erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), complement C 3 d, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels before and after surgery were recorded. Preoperative values were within normal limits in all patients. Postoperatively, CRP increased immediately, with a maximum of 28.5 mg/l on the 2nd day and were normalized within 6 days. The maximum ESR elevation occurred after the 6th day and was followed by a slow decrease. After 12 weeks some patients still had an elevated ESR. Plasma C 3 varied pari passu with the ESR. Uncomplicated recovery after lumbar disc surgery seems to be indicated by a normalization of CRP, regardless of ESR values. Therefore, ESR may not be so useful as an indicator of disc space inflammation as previously accepted.

    Blood pressure response to administration of local anaesthetics with noradrenaline in craniotomies (1980)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 51 (1980), S. 157-160

    Notes: Summary Infiltration with local anaesthetics with addition of adrenaline or noradrenaline has been used since 1910 prior to skin incision for craniotomy. In a controlled series of patients scheduled for intracranial operations, systemic blood pressure was measured intra-arterially after infiltration with 15–20 ml 0.5% lignocaine with noradrenaline 1 μ gr/ml. A marked increase in systemic blood pressure was seen (125% of values prior to infiltration). In a control series, where saline was injected, a slight fall in blood pressure was registered (p〈 0.01). As hypertensive episodes increase intracranial pressure in patients with impaired cerebral autoregulation, or promote the risk of haemorrhage in aneurysm surgery, this technique is considered a hazard to patients undergoing intracranial operations.

    Leucocyte scanning—a valuable tool in diagnosing cerebral abscess—a survey (1986)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 83 (1986), S. 121-124 
    Details
    ISSN: 0942-0940
    Keywords: Brain abscess ; brain computed tomography ; brain radiolabelled leucocyte scanning
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Intracerebral abscess is a diagnosis which occasionally can be difficult to establish by using CT scan only. This survey describes the usefulness of a supplementary indium-111 autologous granulocyte scan which may increase the diagnostic specificity in the differential diagnosis between neoplasm and intracranial abscess. Judging from the literature and our own investigations the application of the granulocyte scan is discussed with special reference to the possible pitfalls which can give both false negative and false positive results.

    Familial occurrence of bilateral intracranial occlusion of the internal carotid arteries (Moya Moya) (1975)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 31 (1975), S. 245-252 
    Details
    ISSN: 0942-0940
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary In a family of 14 brothers and sisters, 3 cases of occlusive disease of the large intracranial vessels (Moya Moya) were found. Bach of the three had one or more cerebrovascular attacks and a typical cerebral angiogram. Eight other members of the family had severe headaches. Angiography was carried out in three of these with normal findings.

    Neurogenic intermittent claudication (1983)

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Twenty-six patient treated for neurogenic intermittent claudication (NIC) have been examined on an average of 25.5 months after a decompression operation. Twenty-two of the patients were either considerably better (15 patients) or completely free of symptoms (7 patients). Pre-operatively two thirds of the patients were able to walk less than a 100 metres. Post-operatively 12 of the patients had an unlimited walking distance.

    Complications to the use of vicryl-collagen dural substitute (1995)

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The authors describe 3 cases of postoperative infection as a complication after the use of vicryl-collagen dural substitute. The substitute had already partially dissolved 2 weeks after surgery with the remnant so densely adherent to the brain surface that it could not be removed without damaging the cortex. This was confirmed microscopically.
