Pérdida visual secundaria a intoxicación inhalatoria y cutánea por metanol y tolueno. A propósito de un caso

Methanol poisoning is often described in the literature, but not transdermal or inhalational poisoning. It usually involves variable multi-organ damage, among which visual, neurological, and gastrointestinal involvement, as well as the metabolic and electrolyte changes that can lead to death. Contact with toluene by occupational or intentional inhalation may also cause neurological abnormalities. This article describes the case of a female patient who was seen in the Emergency Department due to bilateral visual loss secondary to accidental poisoning (inhalation-transdermal) with a solvent containing methanol and toluene. She had a favourable outcome during admission after treatment with ethanol in perfusion and corticosteroids.     

小骨窗术和碎吸术治疗脑出血的临床应用研究

目的对比研究颅内血肿小骨窗清除术和颅内血肿(钻孔)碎吸清除术治疗脑出血的疗效。方法87例脑出血患者分为小骨窗组(行颅内血肿小骨窗清除术)、碎吸组(行颅内血肿碎吸清除术)和对照组(行内科保守治疗)。分别比较小骨窗组、碎吸组、保守组治疗前后的GCS评分及3组的GCS评分差。采用t检验、χ2检验和单因素方差分析比较。结果小骨窗组、碎吸组与保守组的GCS评分差比较均有差异(P<0.05);小骨窗组和碎吸组的GCS评分差比较也有差异(P<0.05)。结论小骨窗颅内血肿清除术、碎吸颅内血肿清除术、内科保守疗法在脑出血治疗中均能发挥一定的作用。小骨窗术和碎吸术在治疗中均能提高疗效、加快神经功能恢复,但小骨窗术较碎吸术能更好地发挥疗效、提高病人的生存质量。     

双侧内囊前肢毁损术治疗难治性强迫症疗效及随访研究

显微锁孔手术治疗脑干及其周围病变

目的 将显微锁孔手术应用于脑干及其周围病变的外科治疗，探求以最小的创伤来取得最佳的手术疗效。方法 采用颞下锁孔人路、乳突后锁孔人路、枕下正中锁孔人路，以20mm左右直径的骨窗进行脑干及其周围病变的显微手术治疗。结果 本组16例例病人术后3d内均行MRI或DSA检查，肿瘤或动静脉畸形全切除11例，次全切除3例，部分切除1例，1例小脑后下动脉瘤成功夹闭。术中输血3例。并发脑脊液耳漏1例，硬膜下积液1例，1例术后持续昏迷40d苏醒，无死亡及感染病例。结论 锁孔人路微创技术处理脑干及其周围病变，因其手术创伤小，疗效佳，费用节省，值得临床推广应用。     

Short-term lack of cerebral perfusion with good outcome. Advantages of early intracranial pressure monitoring

A 21-year-old man was injured by a tailboard of a truck. He suffered a severe head injury with bilateral depressed skull fractures necessitating surgical decompression. On admission to the hospital the patient showed bending to pain stimuli (Glasgow Coma Score 5). Anisocoria was noticed from the beginning. Initial intracranial pressure (ICP), measured 3 hours after injury, was 30 mm Hg, and the cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) was 70 mm Hg. During surgical elevation of the skull fracture on the right side an unexplainable rise of ICP to values of 100 mm Hg occurred, which corresponded to the mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). At the same time both pupils were dilated and fixed indicating a lack of cerebral perfusion. Due to immediate trephination of the opposite side, the ICP was lowered to values below 20 mm Hg, and sufficient cerebral perfusion (above 50 mm Hg) was regained. The patient showed a good recovery and was transferred to a rehabilitation center 5 weeks after injury.This case report emphasizes the importance of early and continuous intracranial pressure monitoring for adequate therapy in neurosurgical emergencies.     

Bilateral reverse U incisions and separately placed columella relaxation incision for correction of bilateral cleft lip nose deformity

The reverse U incision method has been employed for the correction of the unilateral cleft lip nose deformity for more than twenty years with satisfactory results. It has some columella lengthening effect and thus has proved to be useful for the correction of nasal deformities of bilateral cleft lip. To augment its columella lengthening effect a columella relaxation incision is added to the bilateral reverse U incision for the correction of the bilateral cleft lip nose deformity. This results in a reconstructed columella of satisfactory length and width.     

Remote subarachnoid haemorrhage in the posterior fossa following supratentorial surgery

Summary Haemorrhage in regions remote from the site of following intracranial operations is rare, but they do occur. We performed supratentorial craniotomy on 639 patients between the time of introduction of computed tomography (CT) for clinical use in 1983 and June 1992; subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) in the posterior fossa occurred postoperatively in six of these cases. These included four patients with tumours in the sellar region, one with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and one who underwent superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis. The ages of the six patients ranged from 17–72 years.Haemorrhage occurred on the day of operation in one case and was detected on CT examination on the day following surgery in the remaining five cases. Of three patients with disturbance of consciousness, two underwent suboccipital craniectomy for reduction of intracranial pressure, while one received barbiturate therapy and later underwent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt surgery. No special treatment was necessary for the remaining three patients with less serious lesions. Five of the six patients ultimately recovered their pre-operative neurological status apart from the primary diseases.Factors inducing such haemorrhages seem likely to include displacement of the cerebellum by reduced CSF pressure during and after operations, and stretching and tearing of the veins and venules in the sulci of the tentorial surface of the cerebellum. Consideration should therefore be given to the maintenance of an appropriate CSF pressure during operation; this is particularly important in elderly patients and those with an atrophied cerebral cortex.     

Bilateral subclavian steal syndrome: Treatment with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stent placement

A 66-year-old man presented with bilateral subclavian steal syndrome (SSS) due to proximal subclavian artery occlusions. He was treated by percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA) and stent implantation in the left subclavian artery and by PTA alone in the right subclavian artery. We could demonstrate that interventional treatment of symptomatic bilateral SSS is possible. If PTA alone is insufficient, stent implantation should be considered.
