RESUMO
Os autores utilizam como método de proteção medular em cirurgia de aorta descendente, circulação extracorpórea átrio esquerdo-femoral esquerda, com baixa dose de heparina (1 mg/kg), bomba centrífuga (bio-pump) e exsangüinação controlada. Operaram 4 doentes com esta metodologia sem que houvesse mortalidade, paraplegia ou sangramento excessivo.ABSTRACT
The authors have used for spinal cord protection during descending aortic surgery, partial extracorporeal circulation from left atrium to left femoral artery, low dose of heparin (1 mg/kg), centrifugal pump (bio-pump) and controlled exsanguination. They have operated upon with this methodology 4 patients without mortality, paraplegia or excessive bleeding.REFERÊNCIAS
