CNS Pathology - I Bleeding in the Skull Region Jaroslava Dušková Inst. Pathol. ,1st Med. Faculty, Charles Univ. Prague
Bleeding in the Skull Region • extracranial (kefalhaematoma externum, subperiostal, subaponeurotic) • intracranial extracerebral intracerebral
ED SD v.cerebri magna Galeni SA IP
extracerebral epidural subdural subarachnoideal intracerebral capillary venous arterial circumscribed destructive Bleeding in the Skull Region – intracranial haemorrhages
Germinal Zone (GZ) Bleeding 25% preterm neonates (decreasing recently) GZ: periventricular, large calibre capillaries, highly vascularized esp. in the 3rd. trimestre
Patogenesis of GZ Bleeding Perinatal ev. intranatal hypoxia • disorder of cerebral perfusion autoregulation • ischemic endothelial capillary lesions in the GZ • myocardial energy reserves exhausted • perinatal circulation failure • cerebral hypoxia venous haemorrhage Blood pressure increase • muscle activity of neonate • resuscitation • arteficial ventilation
Type of injury Diffuse commotion diffuse axonal injury Focal contusion Compression hematomas (epidural, subdural, intracranial) hygroma Therapy Conserv. Conserv. sometimes evacuation SURGICAL Closed Cerebral Trauma–traumatology classification
Punch-Drunk Syndrome – (dementia pugilistica) • clinically obvious years after the last fight • three stages: • affective disorders, mild incoordination • dysphasia, apraxia, agnosia, apathy, blunting of affects • global cognitive decline & parkinsonism • present in 20% of profess. boxers over 50 • more likely to develop in boxers with long careers • SN degeneration, neuronal loss, Alzheimer intracellular changes
Brain Perfusion Failure Encephalomalacia white red mixed Causes ischemia venostasis Postencephalomalatic pseudocyst (event.)
Cerebral Arteries Atherosclerosis Morphological features • encephalomalacia • encephalopathia angiosclerotica: • atrophia cerebri diffusa • status cribrosus • status lacunaris • hydrocephalus ext. et int. e vacuo
Cerebral Arteries Atherosclerosis Clinical features • cerebral infarction (event. death) • pyramidal and extrapyramidal signs • atherosclerotic (multiinfarct) demention (-100ml!)
