Value of intraoperative ultrasound in microsurgery for intracranial lesions / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the application of intraoperative ultrasound in intracranial lesion microsurgery operation.Methods Twenty-one cases of intracranial lesions were treated by microneurosurgical operation.The intraoperative ultrasound was adopted to scan and accurately locate the lesion position,judge the lesion character and observe the relation between the lesion border with the surrounding tissues.The lesion inside and surrounding blood flow situation was observed by color Doppler ultrasound.The lesion size,range and distance from the meninges were measured.Results All cases were accurately positioned under the ultrasound guidance,and all the lesions were removed by microsurgery.Conclusion Intraoperative ultrasound flexibly,real-time and accurately localizes the lesion,shortens the operation time,avoids unnecessary normal brain tissue damage,protects the nerve function,and improves the safety and efficacy of operation.
