Optochiasmal arachnoiditis following muslin wrapping of ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms.

abstract：OBJECT:Temporary arterial occlusion (TAO) during aneurysm surgery carries the risk of ischemic sequelae. Because monitoring of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) may limit neurological damage, the authors evaluated a novel thermal diffusion (TD) microprobe for use in the continuous and quantitative assessment of rCBF ...
