[Anatomical study of different modes of anastomosis between the facial artery and ophthalmological artery at the medial angle of the orbit (author's transl)].

In 21 autopsy specimens, we performed latex injection, and studied the rate and the diameter of the anastomosis between the ophthalmic artery and the facial artery: we find 26 cases in 42 face-sides, 60 %; which can supply rapidly a circulatory insufficiency. The anastomosis which go to the ophthalmic artery from the others branches of the external carotid are less frequent.

[Cerebral ischemia, treatment by vascular micro surgical technique: intra-extra cranial anastomosis (author's transl)].

The introduction of vascular micro-surgical techniques has allowed to treat cerebral ischemia, through extra-intra-cranial anastomosis, when the causative arterial lesions have a surgically unfavorable location. Thirty patients underwent brain revascularization through extra-intra-cranial micro-anastomosis between the superficial temporal artery (branch of the external carotid artery) and a cortical branch of the middle cerebral artery. Twenty five patients had definite sensitive and motor deficits. Five patients, on the other hand, underwent preventive surgery because of transient cerebral ischemia. In our series, the global rate of the microanastomosis patency is 78%. When the anastomosis is patent, 85% of the cases with motor deficits are cured or improved. The results are even more favorable in case of transient cerebral ischemia, for the anastomosis in such cases was always patent. None of these later patients had ischemia attacks with a one-year follow-up.

[Extra-intracranial arterial bypasses. Evaluation of their permeability by use of the Doppler effect].

40 temporo-sylvian anastomoses were controlled using Doppler ultrasonic examination. The results are compared to post-operative arteriograms. The Doppler examination has proved to be highly accurate when compared to contrast arteriography in the survey of extra-intracranial anastomosis. This non invasive procedure can easily be repeated. However the size of the revascularized area cannot be estimated. The simultaneous isotopic studies of regional cerebral blood flow could provide a means of quantifying the results of the anastomoses.

[Cerebral cortex in normal pressure hydrocephalus: an electron microscopy study (author's transl)].

A cortical biopsy was taken at the time when ventricular pressure was measured, or a ventriculo-atrial shunt placed, in 11 patients with Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (N.P.H.), and was studied with the electron microscope. In 9 cases, a rather typical electron microscopic picture with marked increase of extracellular space in an otherwise normal cortical neuropil was observed. 2 patients did not exhibit this pattern and, coincendentally, did not benefit from the placing of the shunt. As a control, about 600 cortical biopsies that had been taken for other reasons were reviewed. In the group, there were only 3 cortices that had a pattern of increased extracellular space similar to the described in N.P.H. On review of the clinico-pathologic data of these cases, it was felt that all 3 probably represented cases of normal pressure hydrocephalus. It is concluded that the ultrastructure of the cerebral cortex is of at least nosological interest in the study of N.P.H.
