Nomogram of fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity in a Brazilian population [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To determine a reference curve for the peak systolic velocity of fetal middle cerebral artery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The authors developed a cross-sectional study with 143 healthy pregnant women between the 23rd and 35th gestational weeks.

Doppler ultrasonographic assessment of the cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) is widely used as an adjunct to umbilical artery (UA) Doppler to identify fetuses at risk of adverse perinatal outcome.

Middle cerebral artery Doppler [PDF]
In the last 50 years we have seen tremendous advances in the management of fetal haemolytic anaemia. What was once a disease of high perinatal mortality and morbidity has become a condition readily amenable to antenatal diagnosis and intrauterine fetal therapy.

Excision of a Large Complex Left Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysm With a Middle Cerebral Artery—Middle Cerebral Artery and Superficial Temporal Artery—Middle Cerebral Artery Bypass: 2-Dimensional Operative Video [PDF]
Abstract Revascularization techniques for microsurgical manage-ment of middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation aneurysms are often necessary for treatment of fusiform or giant aneurysms. Augmentation of the standard pterional approach to include an extended orbitozygomatic or modified orbitozygomatic approach provides a wider and more ...

Cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness upon acute high-altitude exposure at 3,700 m in young Chinese men. [PDF]
PURPOSE: We aimed at identifying the cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness (AMS). METHODS: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography examinations were performed between 18 and 24 h after arrival at 3,700 m via plane from 500 m (n ...

The middle cerebral artery (MCA) arises in the embryogenesis as the latest branch from the cranial division of the ICA and develops to the largest artery supplying a large part of the cerebral hemispheres and basal ganglia. The development of the MCA correlates with the great extension of the cortical mantle in the mammal (Kier 1974).

Background Protein kinase C (PKC) is known to be involved in the pathophysiology of experimental cerebral ischemia. We have previously shown that after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion, there is an upregulation of endothelin receptors in the ...
