  • Title: [Dynamics of local cerebral blood flow in patients with contusion and compression of the brain in the postoperative period].
    Author: Kondakov EN.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1977; (5):28-33. PubMed ID: 919977.
    Abstract:
    Study of local cerebral blood flow and PO2 in 19 patients with contusion of the brain after they had undergone surgery with removal of intracranial hematoma showed that posthypohyperemia developed in the previously compressed area of the brain which led to the formation of multiple hemorrhages along the vessels and consequent decrease in local blood flow later. It was assumed that the level of hyperemia in stability of general arterial pressure reflects the degree of tissue acidosis which grows with an increase in intracranial pressure. Early operative intervention for correcting the brain compression is most effective in such conditions.
