I’ve been able to see a few cases in #surgery where a #Hudson #brace is used to create #burr holes in the #skull. I’ve never seen this #instrument being used in the #UK on my #neurosurgery placements before so it was very interesting for me to watch and understand the #technique
There’s been a few cases of #intracerebral #haemorrhage (ICH) presenting to the #hospital recently. Causes of ICH include hypertension, trauma, AVM or rupture of an aneurysm. In one case I #scrubbed in for an #emergency #crantiomy and the #evacuation of #clot. Image:mayo clinic
Today has been another great day in #neurosurgery. This morning I attended #clinic. Most of the cases today were #spinal with patients either presenting with #traumatic or #degenerative disc herniation.Traumatic disc herniation was mainly due to RTA’s. Illustration by mayo clinic
The superficial temporal (artery A) has now been clipped. A clip has just been placed distally to stop blood flow. This prevents bleeding from the artery once it’s dissected.
The picture below is of a clipped aneurysm. It is just to demonstrate what a clipped artery looks like
An arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a tangle of abnormal blood vessels between an artery and a vein. It is susceptible to bleeding leading to a hematoma.
Very proud of our @RlhNeurosurgery resident Tom and his talented wife Lauren for creating one of the winning BJNS art covers!
