Abstract

Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a low risk operation that reduces the risk of stroke in patients who harbor both symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid stenoses. Unfortunately the surgical therapy also has some mortality and morbidity rates. The most important factor to minimalize this rate is reliable monitoring of cerebral perfusion during the surgery. In this study we aimed to investigate the potential advantages and disadvantages of regional anesthesia in patients undergoing CEA. Methods: Between june 2004 – june 2005, 25 CEA operations in 24 patients, under regional anaesthesia were performed. Sixty percent of patients were preoperative symptomatic, 92 % of patients classificated as ASA IV. In 20 patients, only CEA and in 5 patients CEA and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) together were performed. Result: There is only one patient who had experienced respiratory arrest and entubated and then followed by CEA+CABG. We have used patchplasty technique in 18 patients and primary repair in 7 patients. Carotid shunt was used in 2 patients. The mean carotid clamp time was 31.3±3.6 min. (27- 45) and operation time was 116.9±15.4 min. (90- 150). There were no strokes among the patients. Conclusion: Regional anaesthesia in carotid surgery is attractive and gaining in popularity because of easy and reliable monitor›ng of cerebral perfusion therefore minimalize the use of selective shunting, lower overall costs and possibly a lower incidence of morbidity and mortality. The experience of the surgical and anaesthetic teams and patient co-operation is probably the most important factor in deciding which anaesthetic technique to use for Carotid Surgery.

Özet

Amaç: Karotid endarterektomisi (KAE) semptomatik ve asemptomatik hastalardaki inme oranını azaltmaya yönelik uygulanan düşük riskli bir operasyondur. Ancak cerrahi tedavi de belli oranlarda mortalite ve morbiditeye sahiptir. Bu oranların en düşük seviyelerde tutulmasında en önemli faktörlerden biri girişim esnasında serebral perfüzyonun takibidir. Çalışmamızda karotid arter cerrahisinde, rejyonel anestezinin avantajları ve olası dezavantajları araştırılmıştır. Yöntem: Haziran 2004 - haziran 2005 tarihleri arasında rejyonel anestezi eşliğinde 24 hastada, 25 KAE operasyonu uygulanmıştır. Hastaların %60’ı preoperatif semptomatik, %92’i ASA IV olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Yirmi hastada sadece KAE, 5 hastada ise aynı seansta KAE ve koroner arter bypass greftlemesi (KABG) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Bir hastada rejyonel anestezi uygulanmasını takiben gelişen solunum arresti nedeni ile hasta acil entübe edilip karotid arter cerrahisini takiben KABG uygulanmıştır. Onsekiz hastada yama plasti, 7 hastada direkt kapama uygulanmış, şant sadece 2 hastada kullanılmıştır. Karotis klemp süresi ortalama 31.3±3.6 dk. (27- 45), operasyon süresi ortalama 116.9±15.4 dk. (90- 150) olarak hesaplanmıştır. Stroke hiçbir hastada görülmemiştir. Sonuç: Rejyonel anestezi, KAE hastalarında kolay ve güvenli bir serebral perfüzyon kontrolünü sağlamakta dolayısı ile de selektif şant kullanımını en aza indirmektedir. Ek serebral monitörizasyon ihtiyacı doğurmadığından operasyon maliyetlerinide düşürmektedir. Yöntemi uygulamada hasta kompliansı, cerrah ve anestezistin tecrübesi önemli rol oynamaktadır.
