El stenting del seno venoso para la hipertensión intracraneal benigna refractaria
Lancet (London, England)
|January 29, 2002
Resumen
La hipertensión intracraneal benigna puede deberse a la estenosis sinusal venosa. El tratamiento de la obstrucción del seno transverso con stenting alivió los síntomas en un caso refractario, lo que sugiere un nuevo enfoque terapéutico.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Neurología Neurología.
- Neurología Vascular Neurología Vascular
- La neurocirugía es la neurocirugía.
Sus antecedentes:
- La hipertensión intracraneal benigna (HIB) comparte similitudes con la trombosis venosa sinusal cerebral (TVSC).
- Las teorías anteriores sugerían que la BIH es causada únicamente por la hipertensión venosa, a menudo debido a la estenosis sinusal lateral u oclusión.
- La exclusión de CVST, en particular la trombosis del seno sagital, es crucial en el diagnóstico de BIH.

Sites for measuring blood pressure
Blood pressure measurement is a fundamental clinical procedure, providing crucial data for assessing cardiovascular health. Among the various sites for this measurement, the brachial and popliteal arteries are predominantly utilized due to their accessibility and the reliability of their readings. This lesson delves into the anatomical significance, methodology, and considerations of measuring blood pressure at these locations.

Special considerations while measuring blood pressure
When assessing blood pressure (BP), healthcare professionals must consider various factors and potential unexpected outcomes to ensure accurate readings and provide proper patient care. Adhering to these guidelines is essential to achieving the most reliable results.
Monitoring Both Arms:
Monitoring BP in both arms during the initial assessment is advisable, as the systolic value may differ by five to ten mm Hg between arms. For subsequent BP assessments, use the arm with the higher reading.

Blood Pressure Imbalances and Circulatory Shock
Disorders affecting blood volume, vascular tone, or vascular function can disrupt vascular homeostasis, including conditions like hypertension, hemorrhage, and shock.
Blood Pressure: Hypertension and Hypotension
Normal blood pressure is 120/80 mm Hg. Elevated blood pressure is 120-129/under 80 mm Hg. Hypertension, warranting treatment at 130/80 mm Hg, is often asymptomatic and can lead to severe cardiovascular events, aneurysms, peripheral arterial disease, chronic renal disease, or cardiac...

Arteries of the Head and Neck
The human body's intricate network of arteries ensures that every organ system receives the necessary oxygen and nutrients for optimal function. The arterial network in the head and neck region is particularly complex, providing vital blood flow to the brain, eyes, and other critical structures. Prominent arteries in this region include the internal carotid arteries and the vertebral arteries.
The internal carotid arteries supply blood to the anterior portion of the cerebrum. They enter the...

Epistaxis
Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...
