- Cerebral hemodynamic and metabolic changes in fulminant hepatic failure(2017) PASCHOAL JUNIOR, Fernando Mendes; NOGUEIRA, Ricardo de Carvalho; OLIVEIRA, Marcelo de Lima; PASCHOAL, Eric Homero Albuquerque; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; BOR-SENG-SHU, EdsonIntracranial hypertension and brain swelling are a major cause of morbidity and mortality of patients suffering from fulminant hepatic failure (FHF). The pathogenesis of these complications has been investigated in man, in experimental models and in isolated cell systems. Currently, the mechanism underlying cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension in the presence of FHF is multi-factorial in etiology and only partially understood. The aim of this paper is to review the pathophysiology of cerebral hemodynamic and metabolism changes in FHF in order to improve understanding of intracranial dynamics complication in FHF.
- Surgical technique of retrograde ventricle-sinus shunt is an option for the treatment of hydrocephalus in infants after surgical repair of myelomeningocele(2015) OLIVEIRA, Matheus Fernandes de; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; NORREMOSE, Karen Andrade; MATUSHITA, Hamilton; OLIVEIRA, Marcelo de Lima; SHU, Edson Bor Seng; PINTO, Fernando Campos GomesIntroduction: Treatment of hydrocephalus is accomplished primarily through a ventricular-peritoneal shunt (VPS). This study aims to describe the application of retrograde ventricle-sinus shunt (RVSS) in patients with hydrocephalus after surgical treatment of myelomeningocele. Method: A prospective, randomized and controlled pilot study. We consecutively enrolled 9 patients with hydrocephalus after surgical repair of myelomeningocele from January 2010 to January 2012. These patients underwent elective RVSS or VPS. Five underwent RVSS and 4 underwent VPS. Patients were followed for one year with quarterly evaluations and application of transcranial Doppler. Results: RVSS group showed outcomes similar to those of VPS group. Doppler revealed significant improvement when comparing preoperative to postoperative period. RVSS group had significantly higher cephalic perimeter than VPS group. Neuropsychomotor development, complications and subjective outcomes did not differ between groups. Conclusion: RVSS shunt is viable; it is an alternative option for the treatment of hydrocephalus.
- Experimental rnodel of intracranial hypertension with continuous multiparametric monitoring in swine(2013) ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira de; SOARES, Matheus Schmidt; PATRIOTA, Gustavo Cartaxo; BELON, Alessandro Rodrigo; PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; BOR-SENG-SHU, Edson; OLIVEIRA, Marcelo de Lima; NASCIMENTO, Clarissa Nobrega; NOLETO, Gustavo Sousa; ALVES JUNIOR, Aderaldo Costa; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval Gadelha; OTOCH, Jose Pinhata; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenObjective: Intracranial hypertension (IN) develops in approximately 50% of all patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Therefore, it is very important to identify a suitable animal model to study and understand the pathophysiology of refractory IH to develop effective treatments. Methods: We describe a new experimental porcine model designed to simulate expansive brain hematoma causing IH. Under anesthesia, was simulated with a balloon insufflation. The IH variables were measured with intracranial pressure (ICP) parenchymal monitoring, epidural, cerebral oximetry, and transcranial Doppler (TCD). Results: None of the animals died during the experiment. The ICP epidural showed a slower rise compared with parenchymal ICP. We found a correlation between ICP and cerebral oximetry. Conclusion: The model described here seems useful to understand some of the pathophysiological characteristics of acute IH.
- Evaluation of cerebral hemodynamics by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography and its correlation with intracranial pressure in an animal model of intracranial hypertension(2022) SOARES, Matheus Schmidt; ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira de; BRASIL, Sergio; DE-LIMA-OLIVEIRA, Marcelo; BELON, Alessandro Rodrigo; BOR-SENG-SHU, Edson; NOGUEIRA, Ricardo de Carvalho; GODOY, Daniel Agustin; PAIVA, Wellingson SilvaBackground: Transcranial Doppler has been tested in the evaluation of cerebral hemodynamics as a non-invasive assessment of intracranial pressure (ICP), but there is controversy in the literature about its actual benefit and usefulness in this situation. Objective: To investigate cerebral blood flow assessed by Doppler technique and correlate with the variations of the ICP in the acute phase of intracranial hypertension in an animal model. Methods:An experimental animal model of intracranial hypertension was used. The experiment consisted of two groups of animals in which intracranial balloons were implanted and inflated with 4 mL (A) and 7 mL (B) for controlled simulation of different volumes of hematoma. The values of ICP and Doppler parameters (systolic [FVs], diastolic [FVd], and mean [FVm] cerebral blood flow velocities and pulsatility index [PI]) were collected during the entire procedure (before and during hematoma simulations and venous hypertonic saline infusion intervention). Comparisons between Doppler parameters and ICP monitoring were performed. Results: Twenty pigs were studied, 10 in group A and 10 in group B. A significant correlation between PI and ICP was obtained, especially shortly after abrupt elevation of ICP. There was no correlation between ICP and FVs, FVd or FVm separately. There was also no significant change in ICP after intravenous infusion of hypertonic saline solution. Conclusions:These results demonstrate the potential of PI as a parameter for the evaluation of patients with suspected ICP elevation.
- Intraoperative ultrasonography for presumed brain metastases: a case series study(2012) PICARELLI, Helder; OLIVEIRA, Marcelo de Lima; BOR-SENG-SHU, Edson; RIBAS, Eduardo Santamaria Carvalhal; SANTOS, Alexandre Maria; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenBrain metastases (BM) are one of the most common intracranial tumors and surgical treatment can improve both the functional outcomes and patient survival, particularly when systemic disease is controlled. Image-guided BM resection using intraoperative exams, such as intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS), can lead to better surgical results. Methods: To evaluate the use of IOUS for BM resection, 20 consecutives patients were operated using IOUS to locate tumors, identify their anatomical relationships and surgical cavity after resection. Technical difficulties, complications, recurrence and survival rates were noted. Results: IOUS proved effective for locating, determining borders and defining the anatomical relationships of BM, as well as to identify incomplete tumor resection. No complications related to IOUS were seen. Conclusion: IOUS is a practical supporting method for the resection of BM, but further studies comparing this method with other intraoperative exams are needed to evaluate its actual contribution and reliability.
