Carotid intima expansion surgery

Abstract

In case of carotid atherosclerosis, a plurality of small plaques appear on a carotid intima, and are like boiler scales in a water pipe; the small plaques can cause the tube cavity of the carotid to become small and narrow, so that the blood volume becomes smaller, blood volume supplied to the brain is smaller than a normal volume, part of function of the brain is impaired or even lost due to brain ischemia, and the harm is serious. Aiming at the deficiency in conventional treating of stroke and carotid narrowness, the invention discloses a carotid intima expansion surgery which is a noninvasive intrusive operation; the carotid intima expansion surgery relies on computer image displaying and a vessel expansion device; the vessel expansion device sucks small plaques in the vessels into the expansion device under the action of magnetic force, and discharge the small plaques out of a human body.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a carotid intima expansion operation, which belongs to the medical field of brain surgery. 2. Technical Background [0002] Cerebral infarction is also called cerebral apoplexy, commonly known as stroke, and has a high mortality rate. Cerebral infarction is divided into two types: ischemic and hemorrhagic cerebral infarction, of which ischemic cerebral infarction accounts for 80%. The carotid artery located in the neck is the main artery of the brain. The source of blood supply. When atherosclerosis occurs in the carotid artery, many small plaques will form on the intima of the artery, just like scale in a water pipe. On the one hand, these small plaques will make the lumen of the carotid artery smaller and narrower. As a result, the amount of blood passing through is reduced, and the blood supply to the brain is less than normal, resulting in cerebral ischemia and cerebral infarction; on the other hand, these plaques are co...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: the carotid intimal expansion operation of the present invention is not only low in cost, but also low in long-term recurrence rate and complication rate, and can solve some medical problems that cannot be solved by taking medicine and intervention
