Tissue [Formula: see text] was measured in the primary visual cortex of anesthetized, artificially ventilated normovolemic cats to examine tissue oxygenation with respect to depth. The method utilized 1) a chamber designed to maintain cerebrospinal fluid pressure and prevent ambient[Formula: see text] from influencing the brain, 2) a microelectrode capable of recording electrical activity as well as local[Formula: see text], and 3) recordings primarily during electrode withdrawal from the cortex rather than during penetrations. Local peaks in the [Formula: see text] profiles were consistent with the presence of numerous vessels. Excluding the superficial 200 μm of the cortex, in which the ambient[Formula: see text] may have influenced tissue[Formula: see text], there was a slight decrease (4.9 Torr/mm cortex) in [Formula: see text] as a function of depth. After all depths and cats were weighted equally, the average [Formula: see text] in six cats was 12.8 Torr, with approximately one-half of the values being ≤10 Torr. The kurtosis of the [Formula: see text] histogram, with all depths and cats weighted equally, was 3.61, and the skewness was 1.70.

AbstractA 51-year-old man developed prolonged papilloedema as a result of increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure following staged bilateral radical neck dissection. The patient recovered completely with no further specific therapy. Although the prognosis for vision is usually good in patients with longstanding papilloedema due to raised cerebrospinal fluid pressure, permanent visual impairment remains a serious complication. In the presence of anatomical variations of the venous pathways by which the blood leaves the brain, a raised intracranial pressure may also develop following unilateral radical neck dissection. Nine cases of increased intracranial pressure following unilateral radical neck dissection reported in the literature until now are briefly reviewed.
