Cerebral Oximetry during Surgical Repair of a Pseudoaneurysm of the Ascending Aorta

Background: Pseudoaneurysm is caused by internal tearing of wall of the aorta due to trauma, previous surgery or infectious disease of the aorta. Cerebrovascular accidents are serious complications of surgical repair of pseudoaneurysm that is due to cerebral hypoperfusion; air, clot, or atheromatous emboli and subsequent cerebral ischemia. Report: The patient is a 56 years old man that is monitored with cerebral oximetry during surgical repair of a pseudoaneurysm of ascending aorta and desaturation of his brain was noted and he suffered from right hemiplegia after surgery. Conclusion: Cerebral oximetry is a useful monitoring of cerebral oxygen saturation during cardiovascular surgery and can help in detection of cerebral ischemia and prevention of postoperative neurologic complications.
