Coronary Spasm in Neurosurgical Patients and Role of Trigeminocardiac Reflex [PDF]
Background. Coronary artery spasm (CAS) is a rarely reported complication in neurosurgical patients and its main causative mechanism was attributed to vagal mediated responses. However, these may be the unusual manifestations of trigeminal cardiac reflex

Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are vascular shunts that allow blood to flow from the carotid artery or its branches into the cavernous sinus. Endovascular embolization is the treatment modality of choice. The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is a vagally

A case report: A patient rescued by VA-ECMO after cardiac arrest triggered by trigeminocardiac reflex after nasal surgery. [PDF]
Rationale: Cardiac arrest (CA) caused by trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) after endoscopic nasal surgery is rare. Hence, when a patient suffers from TCR induced CA in the recovery room, most doctors may not be able to find the cause in a short time, and ...

Blood to the Bone: Epistaxis Leading to Osteomyelitis. [PDF]
Apixaban is a direct Factor Xa inhibitor that has been increasingly prescribed, particularly for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. While safer than warfarin, it still carries bleeding risks, including epistaxis, which is commonly managed with nasal packing.

The protective role of lidocaine in surgeries involving trigeminal nerve manipulation: a meta-analysis of trigeminocardiac reflex prevention. [PDF]
The trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is activated when the trigeminal nerve is manipulated through mechanical pressure, traction, or irritation. This leads to a rapid increase in parasympathetic activity, resulting in a decrease in heart rate (HR) and blood
