Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Normal and pathological venous system of the brain is another important achievement of the most famous Romanian Neurosurgery, Acad. Leon Danaila. The book presents in an exhaustive but also attractive manner the most important aspects of venous diseases of the brain. The first two chapters are devoted to the embryology and the anatomy of the venous system of the brain. The third chapter is dedicated to surgery of the superficial cerebral venous system, of the deep cerebral venous system, of the posterior fossa and of dural sinuses. The surgical techniques are thoroughly described and cases from the author's personal experience are used in order to illustrate the techniques. The next 14 chapters (4-17) are actually approaching two main types of cerebrovascular diseases: - cerebral venous thrombosis, its various locations and treatment, - cerebral venous malformations. Every chapter starts with a historical perspective, and the description of every disease is made in a detailed manner. Every chapter starts with a historical perspective, and the description of every disease is made in a detailed manner. From "classical" clinical signs to modern investigations and therapeutic procedures, we have in front a complete picture of every venous disease of the brain. The value of computed tomography, magnetic resonance, computed tomography venography, magnetic resonance venography, conventional angio graphy and direct cerebral venography, transcranial Doppler, etc., are emphasized. But the author concludes that the final decision belongs to the clinician, who must know "whom to test, when to test and what to test"! Medical treatment which is very important, particulary in thrombotic disease in carefully analyzed. Then, the modern methods of treatment are presented. Interventional radiology has become the standard today in many situations where surgery was routinely used in the past. The stereotactic radiosurgery has its special place in the treatment of these diseases and is presented in Chapter 17. Every chapter is followed by an extensive bibliography. The book is illustrated in a very rich manner with cases from the author's personal experience.).

Download or read book The Cerebral Circulation written by Marilyn J. Cipolla and published by Biota Publishing. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This e-book will review special features of the cerebral circulation and how they contribute to the physiology of the brain. It describes structural and functional properties of the cerebral circulation that are unique to the brain, an organ with high metabolic demands and the need for tight water and ion homeostasis. Autoregulation is pronounced in the brain, with myogenic, metabolic and neurogenic mechanisms contributing to maintain relatively constant blood flow during both increases and decreases in pressure. In addition, unlike peripheral organs where the majority of vascular resistance resides in small arteries and arterioles, large extracranial and intracranial arteries contribute significantly to vascular resistance in the brain. The prominent role of large arteries in cerebrovascular resistance helps maintain blood flow and protect downstream vessels during changes in perfusion pressure. The cerebral endothelium is also unique in that its barrier properties are in some way more like epithelium than endothelium in the periphery. The cerebral endothelium, known as the blood-brain barrier, has specialized tight junctions that do not allow ions to pass freely and has very low hydraulic conductivity and transcellular transport. This special configuration modifies Starling's forces in the brain microcirculation such that ions retained in the vascular lumen oppose water movement due to hydrostatic pressure. Tight water regulation is necessary in the brain because it has limited capacity for expansion within the skull. Increased intracranial pressure due to vasogenic edema can cause severe neurologic complications and death.

Download or read book Applied Cerebral Angiography written by Gianni Boris Bradac and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers detailed guidance on the diagnostic use of cerebral angiography based on precise description of the angiographic appearances of normal anatomy and pathological conditions. In this third edition, every chapter has been thoroughly revised and enlarged to reflect new knowledge and experiences, and more attention is paid to the correlations between anatomopathological findings and clinical manifestations. Beyond explaining the diagnostic value of cerebral angiography, a key aim is to equip readers with the precise knowledge of the anatomy of cerebral vessels required for optimal application of endovascular therapy of pathologies involving the arteries and veins of the brain. As in preceding editions, the book is divided into two parts. The first part describes the normal anatomy, with attention to morphological aspects, embryological development, function, and vascular territories. The intraorbital and extracranial vascularization is also fully considered. The knowledge provided will serve as a sound basis for the correct interpretation of pathological processes and their clinical significance, as covered in depth in the second part of the book.
