Aort Cerrahisinde İntraoperatif 16 Kanallı Elektroensefalografi ve Bilateral Near İnfrared Spektroskopi Monitörizasyonu.

Transient neurologic dysfunction is common after aortic surgery. Major causes of postoperative complications followed by cardiac surgery are due to hypoperfusion states such as selective cerebral perfusion, embolic debris during cardiopulmonary bypass and ulcerated plaque emboli originated from carotid arteries. Neurologic complications prolong periods of intensive care unit and hospital stay, worsens quality of life and unfortunately they are an important cause of morbidity. Anaesthesia during a carotid and aortic surgery constitutes of providing adequate brain perfusion pressure, attenuating cerebral metabolism by anaesthetic agents and monitoring the cerebral metabolic supply and demand relationship during the intraoperative period. We present a monitoring approach with an intraoperative 16-channel electroencephalography and bilateral near infrared spectroscopy during redo aneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva surgery.
