  1. Cranio-Cerebral Trauma Re-written by: Daniel Habashi Seminar by: Dr. Jezewski (Asshole)

  2. History • 5000 years ago • Edwin Smith Papyrus (1700 B.C.) • Description of 48 patient neurosurgically treated in Ancient Egypt. The first time the word “brain” was used.

  3. Neurosurgery Made By Monks • Some more history and pictures. Nothing important for a test obviously.

  4. Main Causes Of Cranio-Cerebral Trauma • Car accidents 50% • Falls 30% • Criminal 7% • Sport 7%

  5. GCS – Glasgow Coma Scale

  6. GCS • GCS describes patients clinical status after head trauma and influences the speed of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures • GCS < 8 = serious status

  7. Neurological Examination • Reflex • Flexion / Extension • Anisocoria (ipsilateral not contralateral) • The most important are the dynamics of symptoms

  8. What To Do With A Head Trauma Patient? • 1. head and trunk lifting 30 degrees • 2. Analgosedation (Dormicum + MF / Fentanyl) • 3. Osmotherapy (Mannitol) > 320mOsm/L • 4. Anticonvulsant protection • 5. Optimal ventilation parameters • pO2 100mm Hg, pCO2 30-35mmHg • 6. Fighting against hypovolemic shock • MAP > 90 mmHg • MAP < 90mmHg give Fluids: crystaloids, coloids, vasopressors • 7. Neurological Examination • 8. ICP control • ICP < 20-25mmHg • CPP> 60-70 mmHg

  9. Diagnostic Procedures • 1. Head CT • 2. Vertebral CT • 3. Polytrauma CT • 4. Chest X-Ray • 5. Abdominal USG

  10. Brain Contusion • Structural in brain tissue mainly on the surface after trauma (this makes no sense grammatically but that’s what’s written) • Pathomechanism: • Acceleration / deceleration phenomenon in head trauma • Mechanism contr coup(?)

  11. Brain Contusion / Traumatic intracerebralhaematoma

  12. Subdural Hematoma • Venous Origin (Bridge Veins) • Acute • (1st 24 hours after trauma) • More typical for younger people • Sub-acute • (2-14 days after trauma) • Chronic • (few weeks even months or years after trauma)

  13. Subdural Hematoma – continued • The veins go from the surface of the brain to the dura, and when they break there’s bleeding and collection of blood creating a hematoma in this space. • Venous bleeding is different from arterial • Slower – and that’s why we have acute, sub-acute and chronic

  14. Epidural Hematoma • Always arterial in origin • In 90% of cases coexists with a skull fracture • Acute is the most frequent type • It’s a dynamic hematoma with fast developing symptoms (ACUTE). • Arterial in origin because of the meningeal arteries

  15. Surgical treatment due to CT confirmation • Subdural and epidural haematoma Urgent Surgery!!! • Subdural or epidural hematoma evacuation

  16. Anterior fossa fracture and nasal liquorrhea • Typical fractures in non-airbag deployed car accidents • Very vey dangerous because the ethmoid, glenoid(?) and frontal sinus fractures leads to CSF leakage from the nose and ear (temporal bone fracture) • Can lead to bacterial infections and meningitis

  17. Traumatic brain edema

  18. Osmotherapy • Mannitol 20% 4 x 200 – 250ml • Glicerol 100% 4 x 200ml • Furosemide 60mg/d • Steroids????? • Decadron 0.5 – 1mg/kg 1 Bolus • Golden hour – then 4 x 8 mg • Anticonvulsants – diazepam, phenytoin • Normothermia • Barbitural coma • ICP monitoring
