Carotid occlusion

In the emergency situation, we beheve this technique can be successfully employed in selected patients with symptomatic ischemia due to dissection or atherosclerotic disease despite being on maximal medical therapy. We have also seen patients with carotid occlusion and an isolated cerebral hemisphere (poor collateral flow) benefit from EC-IC bypass. Any potential benefit, however, must... [Pg.127]

Carotid artery disease is one of the major causes of ischemic stroke. The predominant mechanisms by which it causes stroke are (a) arterial embolism from atherosclerotic plaques (b) hemodynamic changes, leading to watershed infarcts and (c) distal propagation of thrombus originating from acute carotid occlusion. ... [Pg.205]

Ohnishi (Sakamoto etal., 1991) has described an oligomeric derivative of prostaglandin Bi (PGB2) and ascorbic acid. In a rat bilateral carotid occlusion-reperfiision injury complicated by haemorrhagic hypotension, this compound reduced a-phenyl-r-butyl nitrone (PBN) spin-trapped radicals and thiobarbituric acid-reactive products (TBARs) (a measure of lipid peroxidation) in isolated... [Pg.267]

Idebenone, an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation, was shown to prolong survival time and delay the onset of ischaemic seizures in a bilateral carotid occlusion model in rats. It is marketed in Japan as a therapy to improve cerebral metabolism and performance after a stroke (Suno and Nagaoka, 1984). Cerebral protective effects after an ischaemic insult in dogs and rabbits have been seen with the hydroxyl radical scavenger, mannitol (Meyer et al., 1987). [Pg.270]

Cypros Pharm. Corp. describes the use of polyguanidino derivatives as presynaptic N- and P/Q-type calcium channel blockers for i.v. (or i.c.v.) administration (Marangos et al. (Cypros Pharmaceutical Corp.), W09836743). Compound 5 was administered to gerbils (7.5 mg/kg i.v.) prior to bilateral carotid occlusion. After 72 h the animals were sacrificed. Brains were perfusion-fixed and sections were stained to enable quantitative cell counts of live and dead neurons. The number of damaged neurons in the subiculum was 91.5 compared to 214 for a control treated with saline. It has been claimed that this compound can be used for the treatment of neuropathic pain and for the protection of neurons from excitatory damage under conditions of cerebral hypoxia. [Pg.368]

Due to the very low event rates in patients with asymptomatic lesions of moderate severity (<60% diameter stenosis), it is unknown whether currently available interventional techniques can improve long-term outcomes over those achievable with optimal medical management. Also unresolved are the indications for carotid stenting in asymptomatic individuals with contralateral carotid occlusion (53) and those undergoing major cardiac or vascular surgery (54). [Pg.558]

Bevilacqua et al. (1991) performed the same model in rabbit carotid arteries but compared the procedure in one artery before drug treatment with the contralateral artery after drug treatment. Heparin, the synthetic thrombin inhibitor FPRCH2C1, iloprost and t-PA inhibited carotid occlusion in this model but not aspirin. [Pg.283]

In two experimental models of ischaemia, it has been shown that HU-211 significantly increases cell survival. It was seen that after forebrain ischaemia produced by 20 min of carotid occlusion, the number of viable neurons in the hippocampal CA1 region of HU-211-treated rats was significantly higher than in controls. The same effect was seen in gerbils after 10 min of bilateral carotid occlusion on treatment with HU-211 [197, 198]. A related effect has been noted after rat optic nerve crush injury. Administration of HU-211 improved recovery of the nerve, with the visual evoked response amplitude increasing significantly [199],... [Pg.234]

Low flow may occur secondary to systemic hypotension, as during cardiac arrest. This results in bilateral infarcts, usually in the posterior boundary zones, and causes cortical blindness, visual disorientation and agnosia, and amnesia. Alternatively, a relatively small fall in systemic blood pressure in the presence of internal carotid occlusion or stenosis may cause unilateral boundary zone infarction, usually in the anterior and subcortical regions. This causes contralateral weakness of the leg more than the arm, with sparing of the face. [Pg.120]

Neurological examination is primarily to localize the brain lesion but there may also be clues as to the cause of the stroke a Horner s syndrome ipsilateral to a carotid distribution infarct suggests dissection of the internal carotid artery or sometimes acute atherothrom-botic carotid occlusion. Lower cranial nerve lesions ipsilateral to a hemispheric cerebral infarct can also occur in carotid dissection. [Pg.127]

Tenderness of the branches of the external carotid artery (occipital, facial, superficial temporal) points towards giant cell arteritis. Tenderness of the common carotid artery in the neck can occur in acute carotid occlusion but is more Ukely to be a sign of dissection, or arteritis. Absence of several neck and arm pulses in a young person occurs in Takayasu s arteritis (Ch. 6). Delayed or absent leg pulses suggest coarctation of the aorta or, much more commonly, peripheral vascular disease. Other causes of widespread disease of the aortic arch are atheroma, giant cell arteritis, syphihs, subintimal fibrosis, arterial dissection and trauma. [Pg.127]

Experimental evidence indicates that COX modulates BBB permeability in neuroinflammatory conditions, ischemia, and hemorrhage. The COX inhibitor, KBT-3022, prevented brain edema induced by bilateral carotid occlusion and recirculation in gerbils (Yamamoto et al., 1996). In the collagenase model of intracerebral hemorrhage, the brain water content of rats treated with the COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib, decreased both in lesioned and nonlesioned hemispheres in a dose-dependent manner, which was accompanied with reduced perihematomal cell death (Chu et al., 2004). Delayed damage to the BBB and vasogenic edema, which follow ischemic stroke, were significantly diminished by administration of... [Pg.144]
