Foreword
There has been substantial flux in the field of neuroanesthesia over the past two decades. This followed what
could be viewed as a relatively quiescent and narrowly focused period in neuroanesthesia. During the latter period
much of the focus was on the roles of hypotension in aneurysm surgery, hyperventilation for head injury, anesthetics
as cerebral protectants, and endless debates about intravenous versus inhaled anesthetics. More recently the purview
of neuroanesthesia broadened substantially partly reflecting the huge expansion in the way patients with neurologi-
cal diseases are managed. Patients are cared for not only in the traditional operating theater and intensive care unit
but also in more complex ways inside and outside the operating theater. Examples include endovascular treatment
of aneurysms, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)- and computed tomography (CT)-guided surgery, minimally inva-
sive approaches such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), the growth in neurological monitoring from the awake patient
to complex electrophysiology, and the ever increasingly aggressive spine reconstructions. The neuroanesthesiologist
of today is not only a traveler going to different parts of the hospital but needs to be an expert in patient management
in all the newer scenarios. Furthermore, this expansion of the repertoire requires greater refinement in our intimate
knowledge of how drugs and techniques may enhance or adversely affect the nuanced neurosurgical outcomes.
Given the above changes in practice, the novice and experienced neuroanesthesia practitioners now, more than
ever, need an authoritative text not just full of “book knowledge” but written by those who on a daily basis meld
the academic with the practical. To his credit, Hemanshu Prabhakar has brought together an accomplished group of
international experts to contribute to this excellent volume. Their writing is authoritative and up to date while being
practical and easy to understand. There is no doubt that this book is a very useful contribution to the modern practice
of neuroanesthesia.

Preface
Neuroanesthesia is growing fast as a superspecialty as more and more research is being conducted to improve
the practice. The focus is now not restricted to the bench but has also extended to the bedside. There is a need to have
a volume that provides a comprehensive view of various topics and issues related to neuroanesthesia. This book
provides easy understanding of anesthesia related to neurological sciences. This book will be useful for any medi-
cal practitioner associated with neurosurgical and allied branches such as neurology and neuroradiology. This book
also caters to the needs of all those anesthetists who practice neuroanesthesia but do not have a formal training in
it. It will provide a quick and easy access to understand neuroanesthesia. This book will provide an insight into all
possible aspects of anesthetic management of neurosurgical and neurologic patients. This book has been written
mainly for the residents and students appearing for examination and anesthetists practicing neuroanesthesia. This
book includes the basic sciences such as anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology related to brain and spinal cord.
This book also provides an understanding of related issues such as palliative care, evidence-based practice of neuro-
anesthesia, sterilization techniques, and ethical issues.
This book covers all topics related to neuroanesthesia and provides complete knowledge about brain and spinal
cord. The book includes chapters related to allied specialties such as critical care, neurology, and neuroradiology.
This book also contains a section on biostatistics, which would be extremely useful to residents and trainees who
have to submit dissertation or thesis during their course.
This book contains pieces of information that have been brought together, which may have otherwise been avail-
able in different books.
I am grateful to all my authors across the globe, from as many as 14 different countries. The knowledge and infor-
mation shared by the authors through different chapters is the representation of the global practice of neuroanesthe-
sia and not limited to geographical boundaries. I sincerely hope this endeavor will improve our knowledge in the
management of neurologically compromised patients and bring about an improved patient care.

Introduction and Brief History of
Neuroanesthesia
W.S. Jellish
Loyola University Medical Center, Maywood, IL, United States
Neuroanesthesia has evolved as a subspecialty of anesthesiology and has continued to evolve in association with
further surgical advancements such as minimally invasive techniques and three-dimensional imaging using neuro-
navigation. Neuroradiology has also advanced with invasive neurovascular procedures, once done in the operating
rooms, now performed in the neurointerventional radiology suite with the support of the anesthesiologists.
Early neuroanesthesia was performed as a method to support the practice of trephination. It was uncertain
whether brain surgery had been performed during this trephination or if it was part of a religious or social ritual
(Fig. 1). Some were obviously related to injury, but the presence of multiple defects in the absence of other apparent
injuries in both young and old suggested a possible therapeutic purpose. A popular aspect was that these openings
were used to alleviate pain or allow the escape of evil spirits and humors or to drain pus or reduce inflammation. No
matter what the reason for the trephination, skulls with these types of defects have been found all over the world.
There are several documented examples, which point out that these skull defects were produced as part of a neu-
rosurgical procedure. The Edwin Smith Papyrus is one of the earliest written records of surgical practice (Fig. 2). The
text may well represent the first neurosurgical practitioner’s manual as it describes 48 cases that consist of 15 head
injuries, 12 facial wounds and fractures, and 7 vertebral injuries. Several other written works produced around 400
BC have been linked to Hippocrates. One of the texts on injuries of the head describes trephination for skull frac-
tures, epilepsy, blindness, and headaches. The practitioner was advised to avoid suture lines and the temporal areas
because of fear of damaging the anatomy that would lead to contralateral convulsions.1 It was also noted that the
inner table should be preserved to protect the dura and this bone fragment would later be extracted by suppuration.
Despite the advanced neurosurgical and neuroanatomical knowledge for the times in Greece and Rome, use and
understanding of neuroanesthesia did not appear to be much different from those of fellow practitioners elsewhere
in the world. In the prehistoric period, anesthesia was probably done by chewing or locally applying a mixture of
coca and yucca.2 Daturas had also been used with its anesthetic effect thought to be produced by its contents of sco-
polamine, hyoscyamine, and atropine. In early cultures, wine making was highly developed. In Egypt the soporific
effects of alcohol had been well documented in hieroglyphic writings. It is considered likely that some analgesia and
amnesic effects were derived from this source. Sometimes just compression of the carotid artery was used to induce
unconsciousness.3
Progress in neurosurgery slowed considerable during the Middle Ages. The Roman Catholic Church became very
influential in medical care and monasteries were the centers for science and knowledge. With the edict of AD 1163
entitled, “Ecclesia abhoret a sanguine,” there were restrictions placed on the use of human bodies for anatomical
studies, and progress in the field of surgery was almost halted. At the beginning of the 10th century, Rhazes com-
piled the Liber Continens, a collection of all literature belonging to the Arab world including medicine, philosophy,
religion, mathematics, and astronomy. Among the several important observations he made with this work, one was
particularly remarkable. He wrote that the pressure on the brain, rather than the presence of the skull fracture itself,
was more important in determining the outcome after head injury.4 It was not until later in the 10th century with the
establishment of a medical school in Salerno, Italy, that this and other medical principles were brought forward to
revive European medicine.
Few references were made on the use of anesthesia, perhaps because pain was mentioned so many times in reli-
gious teachings and was felt to be a noble state that served God’s purpose. When anesthesia was attempted, opium,
hyoscyamine, and sometimes wine were used as agents to alleviate pain.5 On occasion Cannabis indica and henbane
were used, along with a sponge containing opium, marberry, water hemlock, and ivy which was boiled and then
applied to the patient’s nose during the surgery.6 It was thought that wine was added to the sponge during boiling
to enhance its sedative power. The physicians of Myddavi, herbalist from Wales, further advised that to improve

anesthetic efficiency, when you prepare to operate on a patient, direct them to avoid sleep as long as possible then let
some of the potion be poured into the nostril of the patient who will fall asleep without fail.7
The first account of inducing anesthesia and reversing sedation was attempted by two Hindu brothers who per-
formed a craniotomy in AD 927 to remove an unidentified tumor from the brain of the King of Dhar. They induced
anesthesia with a drug called samohine and reversed the anesthetic effects by pouring an onion compounded with
vinegar into the subject’s mouth.7 Numerous other concoctions both oral and topical were administered to patients
for better outcomes. Some combined puppies boiled in an oil of lilies and earthworms and prepared in turpentine
of Venice.2 Other mixtures used were rose oil, egg yolk, and turpentine, which were either heated in cold weather or
cooled in warm weather to maintain temperature. This was done to produce optimal wound healing.
The major improvements and overall advancement in anesthesia for neurosurgery occurred in the latter half of
the 18th century. The discovery of carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and nitrogen along with experiments by Priestly and
others using several gases including oxygen and nitrous oxide created interest in the use of these agents to support
patients who were sedated or anesthetized for procedures.8 However, the reluctance of surgeons to perform cranial
operations slowed the implementation of anesthesia for neurosurgery. Nevertheless, the accumulation of knowledge
of functional neuroanatomy, establishment of concepts of asepsis, and the discovery of general anesthesia all moved
the process of neurosurgery accompanied by anesthesia forward.
William Macewen was the first neurosurgeon to excise a brain tumor under endotracheal intubation. He was the
first to show the necessity of controlling the airway and ventilation during craniotomy. At the beginning of the 20th
century there was a great deal of controversy as to what was the best inhalational anesthetic, chloroform, or either.
Victor Horsley performed a series of experiments in animals in 1883–85 and concluded that, although ether was the
safer drug, it was not to be recommended in favor of chloroform because it produced a rise in blood pressure and an

increase in blood viscosity with a potential for hemorrhage.9 He also noted a propensity for postoperative vomiting
and concluded it should not be used for neurosurgery. Also, since morphine constricted blood flow, he suggested
that a combination of morphine and chloroform be used. He subsequently abandoned morphine use because of its
recognized depressant effect on respiration.9
Death related to the administration of chloroform was not uncommon, and several commissions were set up to
study the effects of the drug. In 1901, The British Medical Association appointed a special chloroform committee to
study its use. It was known that approximately 2% chloroform vapor in air was sufficient to induce anesthesia with
much less required for maintenance. Some believed that the concentration should be strictly controlled with a vapor-
izer, while others thought it could be administered strictly by sprinkling onto a cloth. Horsley was of the opinion
that the concentration should be controlled and used a vaporizer designed by Vernon Harcourt, which delivered
chloroform at a 2% maximum (Fig. 3). In patients undergoing craniotomy, Horsley felt that chloroform administra-
tion should be reduced to 0.5% once the bone flap was removed.10 Determination of concentration was particularly
important in patients with raised intracranial pressure (ICP) since higher concentrations in these patients could be
fatal.
Horsley also contributed to neuroscience and neurosurgery by his support and defense of surgery done on ani-
mals for scientific research and to advance clinical knowledge. His work and testimony against the Anti-Vivisection
Society helped to defend the use of animal models to advance neurosurgery.11
Around the same time, the use of local anesthesia began to gain prominence. Cocaine had been formally discov-
ered in 1860 and was introduced in surgery in 1884. Procaine was first synthesized in 1905 and immediately became
commonplace among surgical anesthesia. Most neurosurgeons used local anesthetics selectively. However, in 1913
deMartel popularized its use, and it became common practice for use in all craniotomies. By 1917, Harvey Cushing,
considered the founder of neurosurgery, recommended the use of local anesthesia for all neurosurgical cases.7
Besides being one of the leading neurosurgeons of the early 20th century, Cushing introduced numerous new
methods of anesthesiology. His first contracts in providing anesthesia were not entirely successful. He had several
notable patient deaths while providing ether for procedural anesthesia. In all instances, he was told the deaths
occurred due to the patient’s condition, but he remained unconvinced that adverse reactions to anesthesia were
due only to the condition of the patients. At the coaxing of Dr. F. B. Harrington, Cushing and fellow student Amory
Codman tried to determine who gave the best anesthetics. To make the decision objective, they documented their
anesthesia in the form of “ether charts” (Fig. 4).12 Their most important parameters measured were the pulse rate,

breathing, and temperature of the patients. According to Cushing, “a perfect anesthetic was supposed to be one
in which the patient was sufficiently conscious to respond when left in the ward with the nurse and did not sub-
sequently vomit.” The use of these either charts was a major step toward improvement in what had been a casual
administration of a very dangerous drug.
In 1900, Cushing began an extended tour of Europe, and while in Bern, he recognized the association between
raised ICP and systemic arterial hypertension.13 While in Padua, Italy, at the Ospidale di St. Matteo, he learned the
use of Riva-Rocci’s method of blood pressure measurement (Fig. 5). After returning to Baltimore, he adopted this
method of blood pressure measurement into clinical practice. He gave a lecture in 1903 titled, “Considerations of
Blood Pressure,” only to have a committee of the Harvard Medical School state that, “the skilled finger was of much
greater value clinically for determination of the state of circulation than any pneumatic instrument, and the work
should be put aside, as of no significance.” Even though blood pressure monitoring was not supported by thought
leaders at that time, Cushing still supported the recording of blood pressure during surgery. He also attached great
importance to continuous auscultation of the heart and lungs, a technique he learned from his anesthesiologist,
Dr. S. Griffith Davis.14 The precordial auscultation device used a transmitter of the phonendoscope secured by adhe-
sive strips over the precordium and was connected with a long tube to the anesthesiologist’s ear. The receiver was
held in place by a device similar to a telephone operator’s headgear.15
Cushing remained skeptical about general anesthesia for neurosurgery. Mortality was still high and many of the
anesthetics were performed by students. He began to experiment on work started by Halsted with block anesthesia
using circumferential cocaine infiltration.16 He popularized the use of several local anesthetic techniques and coined
the term “regional anesthesia.” From his first work dealing with regional anesthesia, it was noted that the purpose of
administering it was to avoid side effects in patients with full stomachs and to ensure better cardiovascular stability
in elderly patients.

INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxix
Dr. Fedor Krause, the founder of German neurosurgery, was exposed to combination morphine–chloroform anes-
thesia but was not convinced of its worth for neurosurgery. He felt that controlled hypotension produced by higher
concentrations of chloroform alone were beneficial to reduce bleeding.17 He also noted that sudden death could
occur in patients with intracranial tumors who stopped breathing. He used the Roth-Drager oxygen–chloroform
apparatus which allowed high concentrations of oxygen to be administered. He also noted the brain was insensitive
to pain, and only very light planes of anesthesia were needed to perform these surgeries.18 He concluded a good
neurosurgical outcome required a rapid aseptic technique, minimal blood loss, normothermia, and general narcosis.
During the early 20th century, new delivery systems for anesthesia were being developed. The Junker bottle used
a hand bellows to blow air through a vaporizer and the Ombrédanne ether inhaler could be used in the prone posi-
tion (Fig. 6). Airway management became less supportive and passive and more active with endotracheal intubation
and insufflation of air to maintain oxygenation without ventilation. By 1930, endotracheal anesthesia was recom-
mended for neurosurgery. Inhalational anesthetics such as trichloroethylene with nitrous oxide were developed
as a neuroanesthetic technique,18 while other physicians such as Hershenson used low concentrations of closed
circuit cyclopropane and reported this method in 1942.19 Volwiler and Tabern developed thiopental in 1930 and was
introduced into clinical practice 4years later.20 Halothane was synthesized in 1956 and introduced into practice that
same year.21 Though popular, its propensity to increase ICP and brain size made it a concern to anesthesiologists
and neurosurgeons alike. In 1932, most fluids were given rectally along with a wide variety of anesthetic techniques
including ether-based anesthesia, rectal ether in oil, ethylene, and nitrous oxide.
Certain large centers began to publish their outcomes for neurosurgical procedures and many included a descrip-
tion of the anesthetic techniques used. The Montreal Neurologic Institute showed that of 1000 cases, 700 were per-
formed under general anesthesia and 300 with local anesthetics.22 The major concerns were still airway management
and fluid replacement. A wide variety of agents were used. However, by 1949 and the early 1950s, pentothal was the
induction agent of choice for oral intubation. Throat packing and the use of a nonrebreathing valve to prevent the
buildup of carbon dioxide was also common.
After World War II, great advances in neuroanesthetic techniques were brought on by the development of new
anesthetic agents and advanced knowledge of neurophysiology and pharmacology. Lundy in 1942 noted that in
the presence of hypoventilation it was difficult to reduce ICP unless the patient was artificially ventilated.23 The
effects of hypoventilation on intracranial and systemic dynamics were further elucidated by Keaty and Schmidt
(Fig. 7). They also described methods to measure cerebral blood flow using inhaled N2O.24 Another group used the
injection of intraarterial krypton to measure blood flow in the brain and speed of washout.25 The measurement of
ICP had been discovered by Cannon in 1901 but continuous ICP measurement was not described until 1960.26 The
link between CO2, O2 tension and cerebral blood flow was also developed at this time. Dr. Thomas Langfitt further

defined intracranial dynamics based on previous work and developed the pressure volume curves along with the
concept of intracranial compliance.27
Three major anesthesia groups contributed to the development of the specialty, the Glascow Group, Pennsylvania
Group, and the Mayo Clinic Group. All the three centers were considered think tanks in the development of neuro-
anesthetic principles and techniques to help improve intracranial surgery. Most of the principles for neuroanesthesia
have been developed over the last 70years. The term, “neuroanesthesia” was coined by John Michenfelder from the
Mayo Clinic.28
In the 1960s, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania studied the cerebral effects of nitrous oxide, cyclopro-
pane, halothane, enflurane, hypotension, and hyperventilation.29–31 These studies formed many of the basics for neu-
roanesthesia principles today. At the same time, researchers at the University of Glascow studied anesthetic effects
on intracranial dynamics. This group was one of the first to confirm that anesthetic agents did indeed exert a measur-
able effect on cerebral blood flow and metabolism in patients with intracranial mass lesions.32,33 It was some of these
studies that were used to justify the abandonment of the use of halothane because of its vasodilating properties, espe-
cially in patients with mass lesions in the brain. At the Mayo Clinic the only emphasis of research by Michenfelder
was of providing cerebral protection, especially with hypothermia during neurovascular procedures. These same
three centers continued to expand their influence in neuroanesthesia, and at the University of Pennsylvania the role
of the neuroanesthesiologist was expanded to the intensive care unit.
In the 1980s, research continued on glucose control and again on the effects of modest hypothermia. A wide range
of drugs emerged as possible cerebral protective agents. A much clearer understanding of pathways involved in
cell damage was also achieved. Research on brain trauma and survival also became important because of the effects
of war on traumatic brain injury. Despite much of this research, the morbidity and mortality from subarachnoid
hemorrhage, stroke, trauma, and neoplastic lesions have remained largely unchanged in the past several decades.
Nevertheless, neuroanesthesia practice has appreciably changed over the past few decades.
Hyperventilation has long been known to reduce ICP. At the beginning of the 1990s it was widely held that this
had therapeutic value for intracranial procedures. However, with the use of oximetric pulmonary artery catheters,
investigators have been able to do retrograde cannulation of the jugular vein up to the bulb to examine venous Hb
saturation in response to therapeutic hyperventilation in head trauma patients. In some patients, this hyperventila-
tion resulted in increased hypoxia that has resulted in abandonment of hyperventilation unless surgical conditions
dictate. However, other recent studies have demonstrated that hyperventilation, especially for supratentorial brain
tumors, was associated with reduced ICP and a 45% reduction in brain bulk, once again demonstrating its worth,
especially with supratentorial surgery.34
The early 1990s also demonstrated a surge of new anesthetic techniques and drugs. Both desflurane and sevoflu-
rane were introduced and were found to have cerebral metabolic properties similar to isoflurane. However, some
questions still remain regarding desflurane causing an insidious increase in ICP. There are also questions concerning
the metabolism of sevoflurane and possible renal toxicity, especially with the effect of anticonvulsants on hepatic
function. Since both drugs have been accepted and widely used as neuroanesthetics, these concerns do not seem
to hold major importance. Remifentanil was also introduced in the 1990s and was found to be essentially identical
to other opioids with respect to µ-opioid agonist-mediated events. It does have a much more rapid and predictable
emergence compared to other opioid-based techniques. However, the drug produces hypertension and tachycardia
with increased sympathetic activity during emergence which could be especially problematic with large tumor resec-
tions where hemodynamic stability during emergence to prevent bleeding is imperative.
The administration of proper IV fluids and correct fluid replacement therapy was better developed in the 1990s.
There was a widespread acceptance that glucose-containing solutions were not essential in patients undergoing
neurosurgical procedures. Perioperative glycemic control is one of the important topics that have been investigated
in the 1980s and 1990s. Hyperglycemia in ischemic conditions has been proven to be detrimental, and strict control
of plasma glucose has been shown to produce better outcomes in critically ill patients. Many studies have demon-
strated that plasma glucose levels are well maintained at close to normal ranges with nonglucose-containing solu-
tions, while patients who received glucose had high plasma levels which fluctuated dramatically during their care.
Therefore, routine use of glucose-containing solutions should be avoided during neurosurgery.
The use of crystalloid solutions has also been altered by studies from the last 20years. In the 1980s it remained a
standard practice to dehydrate patients with intracranial pathology under the assumption that brain volume would
be decreased. This was often performed at the expense of stable hemodynamics and cerebral perfusion pressure.
However, extensive studies have demonstrated that fluid restriction for neurosurgical procedures may be detrimen-
tal. In addition, many large trials evaluating colloid versus crystalloid solutions, especially with trauma-related injury,
showed that saline resuscitation may be of greater benefit than treatment with albumin. In fact, studies demonstrated
INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA
xxxii
a detrimental effect of albumin treatment, especially with the relative risk of death within 24months.35 This has led
to a recommendation that colloids not be used for resuscitation in patients with brain injury.
The early 1990s also provided consistent evidence that small changes in brain temperature could have a major
impact on outcome from ischemic or traumatic brain injury.36 These changes did not require overt cooling or the use
of extracorporeal perfusions but were well within the range of routine manipulation by anesthesiologists. The prac-
tice of the use of mild hypothermia increased, but there were other warnings about inadvertent hypothermia from
other patient populations, which caused concerns. In the late 1990s, a multinational consortium of investigators was
formed to examine the risks and benefits of mild hypothermia in patients undergoing aneurysm clipping and was
inconclusive as to the benefit of hypothermia on survival and outcome after a neurologic event producing ischemia.
Based on clinical data, mild hypothermia may still have beneficial effects in patients with good grade subarachnoid
hemorrhage (SAH).37 The latest American Heart Association and American Stroke Association guidelines for the
management of aneurysmal SAH recommend induced hypothermia as a reasonable option in selected cases.38
At the clinical level, no progress has been made in pharmacologic neuroprotection. Despite successful experi-
mental studies, by far no anesthetic technique has been convincingly shown to provide profound neuroprotection in
humans. Barbiturates remain the gold standard, although clinical evidence of efficacy from this class of compounds
is suspected on methodologic grounds. In a post hoc analysis of IHAST (intraoperative hypothermia for aneurysm
surgery trial) data administration of thiopentanil or etomidate was not found to have a demonstrable effect on
postoperative neurological outcomes in patients undergoing temporary clipping.39 Use of etomidate has waned as
a neuroprotective agent as a result of absence of clinical evidence of benefit in both clinical and laboratory studies.
Some of the most exciting and important clinical advances in neuroanesthesia have been in the area of monitor-
ing, both in the operating room and neurointensive care units. With the advancement of near-infrared spectros-
copy (NIRS) and transcranial Doppler, the detection of cerebral ischemia, especially under general anesthesia, has
improved tremendously. Multimodal intraoperative monitoring of spinal cord sensory and motor function during
surgical correction of adult spinal deformity is feasible and provides useful neurophysiological data with an overall
sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 84.3%.40 In the neurointensive care unit, insertion of microdialysis and multipa-
rameter biochemical probes into traumatized human brains has confirmed findings. Cytokine production and pro-
apoptotic markers have been detected during oxidative stress, and these markers have recovered during enhanced
perfusion. Ischemic events have been associated with tissue acidosis, and spontaneous depolarizations have been
observed. Use of these monitors in the operating room has occurred. What remains to be totally defined is what val-
ues constitute thresholds for interventions. These thresholds have been characterized mostly for NIRS monitoring,
and much of this has revolutionized the treatment of patients with the possibility of cerebral hypoperfusion.
The development of neuroanesthesia has paralleled advances in neurosurgery. As techniques and procedures
have become advanced, so have the techniques and protocols to anesthetize and monitor neurologic function. The
overall goal is to provide a good surgical outcome and better quality of life. Procedures will become less invasive
with more functional neurosurgery requiring a cooperative patient. This makes the anesthetic management for these
procedures even more complex. It is also likely that there will be greater integration of neurosurgery and neuroradi-
ology, with greater emphasis on maintaining cerebral vascular function without the effects of inhalational anesthet-
ics and opioids. Neurosurgery is ever evolving; the practice of anesthesiology for these procedures will also have to
evolve to accommodate the demands of the surgeon and improve patient outcomes. Neuroanesthesia practice will
shadow neurosurgical breakthroughs. These changes will accelerate over the next 10years as scientific advances,
and the understanding of the diseases we treat enhance the capacity of the anesthesiologist to develop techniques to
provide an ideal surgical environment with rapid awakening to assess neurologic function.

INTRODUCTION
Why should a well-established neuroanesthetist study clinical neuroanatomy? This question, albeit a vexing
one, is very pertinent in the present day scenario. The answer is evident. A tower of knowledge built on broad
and diverse information helps one to prepare for all the eventualities that one may encounter. Anatomy is the
basis of every procedure that we perform. An anesthetist who embarks on a new journey into the anatomical

basis of his or her clinical practice has adapted well to a vista that emphasizes fundamental sciences as the basis
of all medical education. It helps the person improve his or her procedural skills. Finally, it helps him or her to
be better equipped to deal with a changing and unpredictable world where knowledge empowers and also acts
as a haven of safety.
About 100 billion neurons and 10–50 trillion neuroglias make up the brain, which has a mass of about 1300–
1500 g in adult. On average each neuron forms 1000 synapses with other neurons1. The total number of syn-
apses, about 1000 trillion, is larger than the number of stars in the galaxy. The central nervous system (CNS)
included the brain and the spinal cord and is composed of (1) cerebral hemisphere, (2) diencephalon, (3) basal
ganglion, (4) midbrain, (5) pons, (6) medulla, (7) cerebellum, and (8) spinal cord. This chapter will provide
information of these parts individually, that is integrated, informative, and relevant to educational need of the
neuroanesthesiologists.
EMBRYOLOGICAL DIFFERENTIATION OF DIFFERENT PARTS OF BRAIN
Knowledge of the embryological development of the brain is necessary to understand the terminology used for
the principal part of the adult brain. The development of the brain is dealt with details in the following chapter.
ANATOMY OF BRAIN
Cerebrum
The cerebrum consists of two cerebral hemispheres that are partially connected with each other by corpus cal-
losum. Each hemisphere contains a cavity called the lateral ventricle. The cerebrum is arbitrarily divided into five
lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, and insula.2 On the lateral surface three sulci (central, lateral or Sylvian,
and parietooccipital sulci) and two imaginary lines divide the cerebrum into four lobes (Fig. 1.1). The first imaginary
line (lateral parietotemporal line) is drawn from parietooccipital sulcus to preoccipital notch and second (temporo-
occipital line) backward continuation of posterior ramus of lateral sulcus before it turns upward to meet first line.
The central sulcus and posterior ramus of Sylvian fissure (SF) separate frontal lobe from parietal lobe and temporal
lobe. Posteriorly parietooccipital sulcus and lateral parietotemporal line separate occipital lobe from parietal lobe
and temporal lobe. Temporal and parietal lobes are separate by posterior ramus of SF and temporo-occipital line
(Fig. 1.1).
The cerebral cortex is the outermost sheet of neural tissue of the cerebrum whereas white matter lies in the center.
Cerebral cortex is folded into sulci and gyri, which actually increases the surface area of cortex. Sulci include the
central lateral and parietooccipital.
The central sulcus begins by cutting the superomedial border of the hemisphere a little behind the midpoint between
the frontal and parietal lobe. It runs on the superolateral surface obliquely downward and forward for about 8–10cm
and ends a slight above the posterior ramus of lateral sulcus. It separates precentral gyrus (motor area) from postcen-
tral gyrus (sensory area) (Figs. 1.2 and 1.3). It was originally called the fissure of Rolando or the Rolandic fissure.

The lateral sulcus or Sylvian fissure (SF) is one of the earliest-developing sulci of the human brain. It first appears
around the 14th gestational week.3 It is the deepest and most prominent of the cortical sulci. The lateral sulcus (SF)
separates frontal and parietal lobes from temporal lobe. It begins on the superomedial margin. The SF starts on basal
and extends to the lateral surface of the brain. It has both a superficial part and a deep part. Superficial part has a
stem and three rami (Figs. 1.2 and 1.3). The anterior portion of the deep part (Sylvian cistern) is called the sphenoidal
compartment and the posterior part is called the operculoinsular compartment. SF is an important corridor in neu-
rosurgery as it connects the surface of anterior part of brain to its depth with all the neural and vascular components
along the way. The structures within the reach through the Transylvian approach include middle cerebral artery; optic
nerves; internal carotid artery; and its branched lamina terminalis, insula, basal ganglia, and interpeduncular fossa.
Parietooccipital sulcus begins on the medial surface of hemisphere nearly 5cm in front of the occipital pole
(Fig. 1.4). The upper end of the sulcus reaches the superomedial border to meet the calcarine sulcus, and a small
part of it is seen on the superolateral surface.
Frontal Lobe
The frontal lobe is an area in the brain of mammals, located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned
anterior to (in front of) the parietal lobe and superior and anterior to the temporal lobes. A prefrontal sulcus runs
downward and forward parallel to the central sulcus. The area between it and central sulcus is the precentral gyrus.
Two sulcus run horizontally anterior to precentral gyrus, i.e., superior and inferior frontal sulcus and divide the region
into superior, middle, and inferior frontal gyri (Fig. 1.3). The frontal lobe contains most of the dopamine-sensitive
neurons in the cerebral cortex associated with reward, attention, short-term memory tasks, planning, and motivation.
Temporal Lobes
Temporal lobes are bounded by SF superiorly and temporo-occipital and lateral parietotemporal line posteriorly
(Fig. 1.3). The temporal lobe has two sulci, superior and inferior, that run parallel to the posterior ramus of the lateral
sulcus and divide superiolateral surface into superior, middle, and inferior temporal gyri (Fig. 1.3). The temporal
lobes are involved in the retention of visual memories, processing sensory input, comprehending language, storing
new memories, emotion, and deriving meaning.4

ANATOMY OF BRAIN 7
I. NEUROANATOMY
Parietal Lobe
The parietal lobe is positioned superior to the occipital lobe and posterior to the frontal lobe. The parietal lobe
is bounded anteriorly by central sulcus, inferiorly by SF and temporo-occipital line, medially by interhemispheric
fissure, and posteriorly by parietotemporal line. The two main sulci are postcentral sulcus, which run downward
and forward parallel to central sulcus, and intraparietal sulci, which are directed posteriorly and inferiorly toward
occipital pole. Thus divide the parietal lobe into postcentral gyrus, superior parietal lobule, and inferior parietal
lobule (Fig. 1.3). The upturn posterior end of the posterior ramus of lateral sulcus or SF extends into inferior parietal
lobule, also superior and inferior temporal sulci turn upward to enter into this lobule and constitute supramarginal,
angular gyri, and arcus temporo-occipitalis (Fig. 1.3).
The parietal lobe integrates sensory information from different modalities, particularly determining spatial sense
and navigation. For example, it comprises somatosensory cortex and the dorsal stream of the visual system. This
enables regions of the parietal cortex to map objects perceived visually into body coordinate positions. Several por-
tions of the parietal lobe are important in language processing. Just posterior to the central sulcus lies the postcentral
gyrus. This area of the cortex is responsible for somatosensation.5
The occipital lobule occupies space behind the lateral parietotemporal line. It has a number of short lobules
divided by short sulci. A horizontal sulci, lateral to occipital sulcus divides the lobe into superior and inferior occipi-
tal gyri (Fig. 1.3). A vertical strip anterior to curved lunate sulcus is the gyrus descendens. The transverse occipital
sulcus is located in the uppermost part of the occipital lobe. A strip superiolateral to this sulcus is arcus parietooc-
cipitalis. The occipital lobe is the visual processing center of the brain containing most of the anatomical region of
the visual cortex.6
Insula is a portion of the cerebral cortex folded deep within the lateral sulcus. This area grows less than its sur-
rounding areas during development and thus lies deep and not seen from surface view (Fig. 1.5). The surrounding
cortical areas are called opercula such as frontal opercula, frontoparietal opercula, and temporal opercula. The insula
are believed to be involved in consciousness and play a role in diverse functions usually associated to emotion or the
regulation of the body’s homeostasis. These functions include perception, self-awareness, cognitive functioning, and
interpersonal experience.
Two hemispheres are attached with each other by corpus callosum. On the medial surface above the corpus cal-
losum there are many sulci and gyri (Fig. 1.4). The most prominent sulcus is the cingulate sulcus, which follows the
curve course parallel of corpus callosum. The area between the cingulate sulcus and corpus callosum is the gyrus
cinguli. Above the cingulate sulcus, large anterior part is medial frontal gyrus and posteriorly paracentral lobule (Fig.
1.4). Behind the paracentral lobule, two major sulci, parietooccipital sulcus and calcarine sulcus, cut the area into a
triangular area called the cuneus. Between parietooccipital sulcus and paracentral lobule, a quadrangular area is
called precuneus, which is anteriorly separated from gyrus cinguli by suprasplenial sulcus.

The majority of the space of cerebral hemisphere deep to the cortex is full of the white matter. There are some
important structures that are embedded within the white matter. On coronal section the corpus callosum is seen as
a strip connecting both the hemispheres (Fig. 1.5). Third ventricle is situated in midline just below corpus callosum.
Thalamus and hypothalamus, which are derived from diencephalon, lie adjacent to lateral wall of the third ventricle.
Caudate nucleus is situated above and lateral to thalamus. Another gray matter mass lentiform nucleus lies more
lateral and just deep to insula. There is a strip of gray matter between insula and lentiform nucleus called claustrum
(Fig. 1.5). The caudate nucleus, lentiform nucleus, claustrum along with some other gray matter nucleus are (derived
from telencephalon) collectively mentioned as basal nuclei or basal ganglia. There is a white matter, an internal cap-
sule that lies between thalamus and lentiform nucleus (Fig. 1.5). The white matter that radiates from the upper part
of internal capsule to the cortex is called corona radiate.
Functional Areas (of Cerebral Cortex)
Korbinian Brodmann was a German neurologist who studied the brain in the early part of the 20th century.7
Brodmann originally defined and numbered (from 1 to 52) different areas of cerebral cortex based on cytoarchitecture
or how the cells were functionally organized (Box 1.1). Brodmann areas have been discussed, debated, refined, and
renamed exhaustively for nearly a century and remain the most widely used and frequently cited cytoarchitectural
organization of the human cortex.8
On the basis of function, regions of the cerebral cortex are divided into three functional categories of areas
(Fig. 1.6). (1) Primary sensory areas, which receive signals from the sensory nerves and tracts by way of relay
nuclei in the thalamus. Primary sensory areas include the somatosensory cortex in the parietal lobe, visual
area of the occipital lobe, and the auditory area in parts of the temporal lobe and insular cortex. (2) Primary
BOX 1.1
I M P O RTA N T B R O D M A N N A R E A S
Frontal lobe contains areas that Brodmann identified
as involved in cognitive functioning and in speech and
language (Fig. 1.8).
t Area 4 corresponds to the precentral gyrus or primary
motor area.
t Area 6 is the premotor or supplemental motor area.
t Area 8 is anterior of the premotor cortex. It facilitates
eye movements and is involved in visual reflexes as
well as pupil dilation and constriction.
t Areas 9, 10, and 11 are anterior to area 8. They are
involved in cognitive processes such as reasoning and
judgment which may be collectively called biological
intelligence.
t Area 44 is Broca’s area.
Parietal lobe plays a role in somatosensory processes
(Fig. 1.8).
t Areas 3, 2, and 1 are located on the primary sensory
strip, with area 3 being superior to the other two.
These are somastosthetic areas, meaning that they are
the primary sensory areas for touch and kinesthesia.
t Areas 5, 7, and 40 are found posterior to the primary
sensory strip and correspond to the presensory to
sensory association areas.
t Area 39 is the angular gyrus.
Temporal lobe: Areas that are involved in the process-
ing of auditory information and semantics as well as the
appreciation of smell (Fig. 1.8).
t Area 41 is the primary auditory area.
t Area 42 is immediately inferior to area 41 and also
involved in the detection and recognition of speech.
The processing done in this area of the cortex
provides a more detailed analysis than that done in
area 41.
t Areas 21 and 22 are the auditory association areas.
Both areas are divided into two parts; one half of each
area lies on either side of area 42.
t Area 37 is found on the posterior–inferior part of the
temporal lobe.
Occipital lobe contains areas that process visual
stimuli (Fig. 1.8).
t Area 17 is the primary visual area.
t Areas 18 and 19 are the secondary visual areas.
ANATOMY OF BRAIN 9

motor cortex, which sends axons down to motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord and finally inner-
vate voluntary skeletal muscles; (3) remaining parts of the cortex, which are called the association areas. These
areas receive input from the sensory areas and lower parts of the brain which integrate sensory information
with emotional states, memories, learning, and rational thought processes that we call perception, thought, and
decision-making.
Motor areas—The motor area is classically located in precentral gyrus on the superiolateral surface of the hemi-
sphere and in anterior part of paracentral lobule. It is shaped like a pair of headphones stretching from ear to ear
(Fig. 1.6). Specific area within the motor cortex controls voluntary muscle activity on the opposite part of body. The
body is represented on the motor strip in an upside–down fashion (Fig. 1.7). The lower parts of the body, such as the
FIGURE 1.6 Traditional concept of functional areas on the superolateral aspect of the cerebral hemisphere (left sided).

feet and the legs, receive motor movement commands from the superior part of the precentral gyrus (motor strip).
Parts of the face, on the other hand are innervated by the inferior part of the motor strip. The motor strip extends
down some distance into the longitudinal cerebral fissure. The portion inside this fissure is its medial aspect. The
part on the lateral surface of the hemisphere is called its lateral aspect. The medial cortex controls the movements of
the body from the hips on down while the lateral aspect sends commands to the upper body including the larynx,
face, hands, shoulders, and trunk (Fig. 1.7). The medial and lateral aspects of the motor strip have different blood
supplies. Blood comes to the medial area from the anterior cerebral artery while the lateral cortex is supplied by the
middle cerebral artery.
Premotor Area
There is supplementary motor area on and above the superior part of cingulate sulcus on the medial aspect hemi-
sphere that reaches to the premotor cortex (Brodmann areas 6 and 8) on the lateral surface of brain. The cortical area
in inferior frontal gyrus corresponds to motor speech area or speech area of Broca (Brodmann areas 44 and 45) and
frontal eye area (Fig. 1.8). Lesion into the motor speech area of Broca results in aphasia even the muscles concerned
are intact. In 95% of right-handers do have left-hemisphere dominance for language functions, only around 19% of
left-handers have right-hemisphere language dominance, with another 20% or so processing language functions in
both hemispheres.9
Sensory Areas
From the specific nuclei of the thalamus, neurons are projected into two somatosensory areas of the cortex: somato-
sensory area I in postcentral gyrus and somatosensory area II in the wall of the SF (Fig. 1.6). The arrangement of the
thalamic fibers in somatosensory area I is such that the part of the body is represented in order along the postcentral
gyrus, with leg on the top and head at the foot of the gyrus. The area of the cortex that receives sensation from a part

  • 20. xix Foreword There has been substantial flux in the field of neuroanesthesia over the past two decades. This followed what could be viewed as a relatively quiescent and narrowly focused period in neuroanesthesia. During the latter period much of the focus was on the roles of hypotension in aneurysm surgery, hyperventilation for head injury, anesthetics as cerebral protectants, and endless debates about intravenous versus inhaled anesthetics. More recently the purview of neuroanesthesia broadened substantially partly reflecting the huge expansion in the way patients with neurologi- cal diseases are managed. Patients are cared for not only in the traditional operating theater and intensive care unit but also in more complex ways inside and outside the operating theater. Examples include endovascular treatment of aneurysms, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)- and computed tomography (CT)-guided surgery, minimally inva- sive approaches such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), the growth in neurological monitoring from the awake patient to complex electrophysiology, and the ever increasingly aggressive spine reconstructions. The neuroanesthesiologist of today is not only a traveler going to different parts of the hospital but needs to be an expert in patient management in all the newer scenarios. Furthermore, this expansion of the repertoire requires greater refinement in our intimate knowledge of how drugs and techniques may enhance or adversely affect the nuanced neurosurgical outcomes. Given the above changes in practice, the novice and experienced neuroanesthesia practitioners now, more than ever, need an authoritative text not just full of “book knowledge” but written by those who on a daily basis meld the academic with the practical. To his credit, Hemanshu Prabhakar has brought together an accomplished group of international experts to contribute to this excellent volume. Their writing is authoritative and up to date while being practical and easy to understand. There is no doubt that this book is a very useful contribution to the modern practice of neuroanesthesia.

  • 22. xxi Preface Neuroanesthesia is growing fast as a superspecialty as more and more research is being conducted to improve the practice. The focus is now not restricted to the bench but has also extended to the bedside. There is a need to have a volume that provides a comprehensive view of various topics and issues related to neuroanesthesia. This book provides easy understanding of anesthesia related to neurological sciences. This book will be useful for any medi- cal practitioner associated with neurosurgical and allied branches such as neurology and neuroradiology. This book also caters to the needs of all those anesthetists who practice neuroanesthesia but do not have a formal training in it. It will provide a quick and easy access to understand neuroanesthesia. This book will provide an insight into all possible aspects of anesthetic management of neurosurgical and neurologic patients. This book has been written mainly for the residents and students appearing for examination and anesthetists practicing neuroanesthesia. This book includes the basic sciences such as anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology related to brain and spinal cord. This book also provides an understanding of related issues such as palliative care, evidence-based practice of neuro- anesthesia, sterilization techniques, and ethical issues. This book covers all topics related to neuroanesthesia and provides complete knowledge about brain and spinal cord. The book includes chapters related to allied specialties such as critical care, neurology, and neuroradiology. This book also contains a section on biostatistics, which would be extremely useful to residents and trainees who have to submit dissertation or thesis during their course. This book contains pieces of information that have been brought together, which may have otherwise been avail- able in different books. I am grateful to all my authors across the globe, from as many as 14 different countries. The knowledge and infor- mation shared by the authors through different chapters is the representation of the global practice of neuroanesthe- sia and not limited to geographical boundaries. I sincerely hope this endeavor will improve our knowledge in the management of neurologically compromised patients and bring about an improved patient care. Hemanshu Prabhakar

  • 26. xxv Introduction and Brief History of Neuroanesthesia W.S. Jellish Loyola University Medical Center, Maywood, IL, United States Neuroanesthesia has evolved as a subspecialty of anesthesiology and has continued to evolve in association with further surgical advancements such as minimally invasive techniques and three-dimensional imaging using neuro- navigation. Neuroradiology has also advanced with invasive neurovascular procedures, once done in the operating rooms, now performed in the neurointerventional radiology suite with the support of the anesthesiologists. Early neuroanesthesia was performed as a method to support the practice of trephination. It was uncertain whether brain surgery had been performed during this trephination or if it was part of a religious or social ritual (Fig. 1). Some were obviously related to injury, but the presence of multiple defects in the absence of other apparent injuries in both young and old suggested a possible therapeutic purpose. A popular aspect was that these openings were used to alleviate pain or allow the escape of evil spirits and humors or to drain pus or reduce inflammation. No matter what the reason for the trephination, skulls with these types of defects have been found all over the world. There are several documented examples, which point out that these skull defects were produced as part of a neu- rosurgical procedure. The Edwin Smith Papyrus is one of the earliest written records of surgical practice (Fig. 2). The text may well represent the first neurosurgical practitioner’s manual as it describes 48 cases that consist of 15 head injuries, 12 facial wounds and fractures, and 7 vertebral injuries. Several other written works produced around 400 BC have been linked to Hippocrates. One of the texts on injuries of the head describes trephination for skull frac- tures, epilepsy, blindness, and headaches. The practitioner was advised to avoid suture lines and the temporal areas because of fear of damaging the anatomy that would lead to contralateral convulsions.1 It was also noted that the inner table should be preserved to protect the dura and this bone fragment would later be extracted by suppuration. Despite the advanced neurosurgical and neuroanatomical knowledge for the times in Greece and Rome, use and understanding of neuroanesthesia did not appear to be much different from those of fellow practitioners elsewhere in the world. In the prehistoric period, anesthesia was probably done by chewing or locally applying a mixture of coca and yucca.2 Daturas had also been used with its anesthetic effect thought to be produced by its contents of sco- polamine, hyoscyamine, and atropine. In early cultures, wine making was highly developed. In Egypt the soporific effects of alcohol had been well documented in hieroglyphic writings. It is considered likely that some analgesia and amnesic effects were derived from this source. Sometimes just compression of the carotid artery was used to induce unconsciousness.3 Progress in neurosurgery slowed considerable during the Middle Ages. The Roman Catholic Church became very influential in medical care and monasteries were the centers for science and knowledge. With the edict of AD 1163 entitled, “Ecclesia abhoret a sanguine,” there were restrictions placed on the use of human bodies for anatomical studies, and progress in the field of surgery was almost halted. At the beginning of the 10th century, Rhazes com- piled the Liber Continens, a collection of all literature belonging to the Arab world including medicine, philosophy, religion, mathematics, and astronomy. Among the several important observations he made with this work, one was particularly remarkable. He wrote that the pressure on the brain, rather than the presence of the skull fracture itself, was more important in determining the outcome after head injury.4 It was not until later in the 10th century with the establishment of a medical school in Salerno, Italy, that this and other medical principles were brought forward to revive European medicine. Few references were made on the use of anesthesia, perhaps because pain was mentioned so many times in reli- gious teachings and was felt to be a noble state that served God’s purpose. When anesthesia was attempted, opium, hyoscyamine, and sometimes wine were used as agents to alleviate pain.5 On occasion Cannabis indica and henbane were used, along with a sponge containing opium, marberry, water hemlock, and ivy which was boiled and then applied to the patient’s nose during the surgery.6 It was thought that wine was added to the sponge during boiling to enhance its sedative power. The physicians of Myddavi, herbalist from Wales, further advised that to improve

INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxvi anesthetic efficiency, when you prepare to operate on a patient, direct them to avoid sleep as long as possible then let some of the potion be poured into the nostril of the patient who will fall asleep without fail.7 The first account of inducing anesthesia and reversing sedation was attempted by two Hindu brothers who per- formed a craniotomy in AD 927 to remove an unidentified tumor from the brain of the King of Dhar. They induced anesthesia with a drug called samohine and reversed the anesthetic effects by pouring an onion compounded with vinegar into the subject’s mouth.7 Numerous other concoctions both oral and topical were administered to patients for better outcomes. Some combined puppies boiled in an oil of lilies and earthworms and prepared in turpentine of Venice.2 Other mixtures used were rose oil, egg yolk, and turpentine, which were either heated in cold weather or cooled in warm weather to maintain temperature. This was done to produce optimal wound healing. The major improvements and overall advancement in anesthesia for neurosurgery occurred in the latter half of the 18th century. The discovery of carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and nitrogen along with experiments by Priestly and others using several gases including oxygen and nitrous oxide created interest in the use of these agents to support patients who were sedated or anesthetized for procedures.8 However, the reluctance of surgeons to perform cranial operations slowed the implementation of anesthesia for neurosurgery. Nevertheless, the accumulation of knowledge of functional neuroanatomy, establishment of concepts of asepsis, and the discovery of general anesthesia all moved the process of neurosurgery accompanied by anesthesia forward. William Macewen was the first neurosurgeon to excise a brain tumor under endotracheal intubation. He was the first to show the necessity of controlling the airway and ventilation during craniotomy. At the beginning of the 20th century there was a great deal of controversy as to what was the best inhalational anesthetic, chloroform, or either. Victor Horsley performed a series of experiments in animals in 1883–85 and concluded that, although ether was the safer drug, it was not to be recommended in favor of chloroform because it produced a rise in blood pressure and an FIGURE 2 The Edwin Smith Papyrus.

INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxvii increase in blood viscosity with a potential for hemorrhage.9 He also noted a propensity for postoperative vomiting and concluded it should not be used for neurosurgery. Also, since morphine constricted blood flow, he suggested that a combination of morphine and chloroform be used. He subsequently abandoned morphine use because of its recognized depressant effect on respiration.9 Death related to the administration of chloroform was not uncommon, and several commissions were set up to study the effects of the drug. In 1901, The British Medical Association appointed a special chloroform committee to study its use. It was known that approximately 2% chloroform vapor in air was sufficient to induce anesthesia with much less required for maintenance. Some believed that the concentration should be strictly controlled with a vapor- izer, while others thought it could be administered strictly by sprinkling onto a cloth. Horsley was of the opinion that the concentration should be controlled and used a vaporizer designed by Vernon Harcourt, which delivered chloroform at a 2% maximum (Fig. 3). In patients undergoing craniotomy, Horsley felt that chloroform administra- tion should be reduced to 0.5% once the bone flap was removed.10 Determination of concentration was particularly important in patients with raised intracranial pressure (ICP) since higher concentrations in these patients could be fatal. Horsley also contributed to neuroscience and neurosurgery by his support and defense of surgery done on ani- mals for scientific research and to advance clinical knowledge. His work and testimony against the Anti-Vivisection Society helped to defend the use of animal models to advance neurosurgery.11 Around the same time, the use of local anesthesia began to gain prominence. Cocaine had been formally discov- ered in 1860 and was introduced in surgery in 1884. Procaine was first synthesized in 1905 and immediately became commonplace among surgical anesthesia. Most neurosurgeons used local anesthetics selectively. However, in 1913 deMartel popularized its use, and it became common practice for use in all craniotomies. By 1917, Harvey Cushing, considered the founder of neurosurgery, recommended the use of local anesthesia for all neurosurgical cases.7 Besides being one of the leading neurosurgeons of the early 20th century, Cushing introduced numerous new methods of anesthesiology. His first contracts in providing anesthesia were not entirely successful. He had several notable patient deaths while providing ether for procedural anesthesia. In all instances, he was told the deaths occurred due to the patient’s condition, but he remained unconvinced that adverse reactions to anesthesia were due only to the condition of the patients. At the coaxing of Dr. F. B. Harrington, Cushing and fellow student Amory Codman tried to determine who gave the best anesthetics. To make the decision objective, they documented their anesthesia in the form of “ether charts” (Fig. 4).12 Their most important parameters measured were the pulse rate, FIGURE 3 The Vernon Harcourt vaporizer arranged with a cylinder of compressed oxygen.
  • 29. INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxviii breathing, and temperature of the patients. According to Cushing, “a perfect anesthetic was supposed to be one in which the patient was sufficiently conscious to respond when left in the ward with the nurse and did not sub- sequently vomit.” The use of these either charts was a major step toward improvement in what had been a casual administration of a very dangerous drug. In 1900, Cushing began an extended tour of Europe, and while in Bern, he recognized the association between raised ICP and systemic arterial hypertension.13 While in Padua, Italy, at the Ospidale di St. Matteo, he learned the use of Riva-Rocci’s method of blood pressure measurement (Fig. 5). After returning to Baltimore, he adopted this method of blood pressure measurement into clinical practice. He gave a lecture in 1903 titled, “Considerations of Blood Pressure,” only to have a committee of the Harvard Medical School state that, “the skilled finger was of much greater value clinically for determination of the state of circulation than any pneumatic instrument, and the work should be put aside, as of no significance.” Even though blood pressure monitoring was not supported by thought leaders at that time, Cushing still supported the recording of blood pressure during surgery. He also attached great importance to continuous auscultation of the heart and lungs, a technique he learned from his anesthesiologist, Dr. S. Griffith Davis.14 The precordial auscultation device used a transmitter of the phonendoscope secured by adhe- sive strips over the precordium and was connected with a long tube to the anesthesiologist’s ear. The receiver was held in place by a device similar to a telephone operator’s headgear.15 Cushing remained skeptical about general anesthesia for neurosurgery. Mortality was still high and many of the anesthetics were performed by students. He began to experiment on work started by Halsted with block anesthesia using circumferential cocaine infiltration.16 He popularized the use of several local anesthetic techniques and coined the term “regional anesthesia.” From his first work dealing with regional anesthesia, it was noted that the purpose of administering it was to avoid side effects in patients with full stomachs and to ensure better cardiovascular stability in elderly patients. FIGURE 4 An example of the ether charts made by Cushing.
  • 30. INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxix Dr. Fedor Krause, the founder of German neurosurgery, was exposed to combination morphine–chloroform anes- thesia but was not convinced of its worth for neurosurgery. He felt that controlled hypotension produced by higher concentrations of chloroform alone were beneficial to reduce bleeding.17 He also noted that sudden death could occur in patients with intracranial tumors who stopped breathing. He used the Roth-Drager oxygen–chloroform apparatus which allowed high concentrations of oxygen to be administered. He also noted the brain was insensitive to pain, and only very light planes of anesthesia were needed to perform these surgeries.18 He concluded a good neurosurgical outcome required a rapid aseptic technique, minimal blood loss, normothermia, and general narcosis. During the early 20th century, new delivery systems for anesthesia were being developed. The Junker bottle used a hand bellows to blow air through a vaporizer and the Ombrédanne ether inhaler could be used in the prone posi- tion (Fig. 6). Airway management became less supportive and passive and more active with endotracheal intubation and insufflation of air to maintain oxygenation without ventilation. By 1930, endotracheal anesthesia was recom- mended for neurosurgery. Inhalational anesthetics such as trichloroethylene with nitrous oxide were developed as a neuroanesthetic technique,18 while other physicians such as Hershenson used low concentrations of closed circuit cyclopropane and reported this method in 1942.19 Volwiler and Tabern developed thiopental in 1930 and was introduced into clinical practice 4years later.20 Halothane was synthesized in 1956 and introduced into practice that same year.21 Though popular, its propensity to increase ICP and brain size made it a concern to anesthesiologists and neurosurgeons alike. In 1932, most fluids were given rectally along with a wide variety of anesthetic techniques including ether-based anesthesia, rectal ether in oil, ethylene, and nitrous oxide. Certain large centers began to publish their outcomes for neurosurgical procedures and many included a descrip- tion of the anesthetic techniques used. The Montreal Neurologic Institute showed that of 1000 cases, 700 were per- formed under general anesthesia and 300 with local anesthetics.22 The major concerns were still airway management and fluid replacement. A wide variety of agents were used. However, by 1949 and the early 1950s, pentothal was the induction agent of choice for oral intubation. Throat packing and the use of a nonrebreathing valve to prevent the buildup of carbon dioxide was also common. After World War II, great advances in neuroanesthetic techniques were brought on by the development of new anesthetic agents and advanced knowledge of neurophysiology and pharmacology. Lundy in 1942 noted that in the presence of hypoventilation it was difficult to reduce ICP unless the patient was artificially ventilated.23 The effects of hypoventilation on intracranial and systemic dynamics were further elucidated by Keaty and Schmidt (Fig. 7). They also described methods to measure cerebral blood flow using inhaled N2O.24 Another group used the injection of intraarterial krypton to measure blood flow in the brain and speed of washout.25 The measurement of ICP had been discovered by Cannon in 1901 but continuous ICP measurement was not described until 1960.26 The link between CO2, O2 tension and cerebral blood flow was also developed at this time.

INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxxi defined intracranial dynamics based on previous work and developed the pressure volume curves along with the concept of intracranial compliance.27 Three major anesthesia groups contributed to the development of the specialty, the Glascow Group, Pennsylvania Group, and the Mayo Clinic Group. All the three centers were considered think tanks in the development of neuro- anesthetic principles and techniques to help improve intracranial surgery. Most of the principles for neuroanesthesia have been developed over the last 70years. The term, “neuroanesthesia” was coined by John Michenfelder from the Mayo Clinic.28 In the 1960s, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania studied the cerebral effects of nitrous oxide, cyclopro- pane, halothane, enflurane, hypotension, and hyperventilation.29–31 These studies formed many of the basics for neu- roanesthesia principles today. At the same time, researchers at the University of Glascow studied anesthetic effects on intracranial dynamics. This group was one of the first to confirm that anesthetic agents did indeed exert a measur- able effect on cerebral blood flow and metabolism in patients with intracranial mass lesions.32,33 It was some of these studies that were used to justify the abandonment of the use of halothane because of its vasodilating properties, espe- cially in patients with mass lesions in the brain. At the Mayo Clinic the only emphasis of research by Michenfelder was of providing cerebral protection, especially with hypothermia during neurovascular procedures. These same three centers continued to expand their influence in neuroanesthesia, and at the University of Pennsylvania the role of the neuroanesthesiologist was expanded to the intensive care unit. In the 1980s, research continued on glucose control and again on the effects of modest hypothermia. A wide range of drugs emerged as possible cerebral protective agents. A much clearer understanding of pathways involved in cell damage was also achieved. Research on brain trauma and survival also became important because of the effects of war on traumatic brain injury. Despite much of this research, the morbidity and mortality from subarachnoid hemorrhage, stroke, trauma, and neoplastic lesions have remained largely unchanged in the past several decades. Nevertheless, neuroanesthesia practice has appreciably changed over the past few decades. Hyperventilation has long been known to reduce ICP. At the beginning of the 1990s it was widely held that this had therapeutic value for intracranial procedures. However, with the use of oximetric pulmonary artery catheters, investigators have been able to do retrograde cannulation of the jugular vein up to the bulb to examine venous Hb saturation in response to therapeutic hyperventilation in head trauma patients. In some patients, this hyperventila- tion resulted in increased hypoxia that has resulted in abandonment of hyperventilation unless surgical conditions dictate. However, other recent studies have demonstrated that hyperventilation, especially for supratentorial brain tumors, was associated with reduced ICP and a 45% reduction in brain bulk, once again demonstrating its worth, especially with supratentorial surgery.34 The early 1990s also demonstrated a surge of new anesthetic techniques and drugs. Both desflurane and sevoflu- rane were introduced and were found to have cerebral metabolic properties similar to isoflurane. However, some questions still remain regarding desflurane causing an insidious increase in ICP. There are also questions concerning the metabolism of sevoflurane and possible renal toxicity, especially with the effect of anticonvulsants on hepatic function. Since both drugs have been accepted and widely used as neuroanesthetics, these concerns do not seem to hold major importance. Remifentanil was also introduced in the 1990s and was found to be essentially identical to other opioids with respect to µ-opioid agonist-mediated events. It does have a much more rapid and predictable emergence compared to other opioid-based techniques. However, the drug produces hypertension and tachycardia with increased sympathetic activity during emergence which could be especially problematic with large tumor resec- tions where hemodynamic stability during emergence to prevent bleeding is imperative. The administration of proper IV fluids and correct fluid replacement therapy was better developed in the 1990s. There was a widespread acceptance that glucose-containing solutions were not essential in patients undergoing neurosurgical procedures. Perioperative glycemic control is one of the important topics that have been investigated in the 1980s and 1990s. Hyperglycemia in ischemic conditions has been proven to be detrimental, and strict control of plasma glucose has been shown to produce better outcomes in critically ill patients. Many studies have demon- strated that plasma glucose levels are well maintained at close to normal ranges with nonglucose-containing solu- tions, while patients who received glucose had high plasma levels which fluctuated dramatically during their care. Therefore, routine use of glucose-containing solutions should be avoided during neurosurgery. The use of crystalloid solutions has also been altered by studies from the last 20years. In the 1980s it remained a standard practice to dehydrate patients with intracranial pathology under the assumption that brain volume would be decreased. This was often performed at the expense of stable hemodynamics and cerebral perfusion pressure. However, extensive studies have demonstrated that fluid restriction for neurosurgical procedures may be detrimen- tal. In addition, many large trials evaluating colloid versus crystalloid solutions, especially with trauma-related injury, showed that saline resuscitation may be of greater benefit than treatment with albumin. In fact, studies demonstrated
  • 33. INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF NEUROANESTHESIA xxxii a detrimental effect of albumin treatment, especially with the relative risk of death within 24months.35 This has led to a recommendation that colloids not be used for resuscitation in patients with brain injury. The early 1990s also provided consistent evidence that small changes in brain temperature could have a major impact on outcome from ischemic or traumatic brain injury.36 These changes did not require overt cooling or the use of extracorporeal perfusions but were well within the range of routine manipulation by anesthesiologists. The prac- tice of the use of mild hypothermia increased, but there were other warnings about inadvertent hypothermia from other patient populations, which caused concerns. In the late 1990s, a multinational consortium of investigators was formed to examine the risks and benefits of mild hypothermia in patients undergoing aneurysm clipping and was inconclusive as to the benefit of hypothermia on survival and outcome after a neurologic event producing ischemia. Based on clinical data, mild hypothermia may still have beneficial effects in patients with good grade subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).37 The latest American Heart Association and American Stroke Association guidelines for the management of aneurysmal SAH recommend induced hypothermia as a reasonable option in selected cases.38 At the clinical level, no progress has been made in pharmacologic neuroprotection. Despite successful experi- mental studies, by far no anesthetic technique has been convincingly shown to provide profound neuroprotection in humans. Barbiturates remain the gold standard, although clinical evidence of efficacy from this class of compounds is suspected on methodologic grounds. In a post hoc analysis of IHAST (intraoperative hypothermia for aneurysm surgery trial) data administration of thiopentanil or etomidate was not found to have a demonstrable effect on postoperative neurological outcomes in patients undergoing temporary clipping.39 Use of etomidate has waned as a neuroprotective agent as a result of absence of clinical evidence of benefit in both clinical and laboratory studies. Some of the most exciting and important clinical advances in neuroanesthesia have been in the area of monitor- ing, both in the operating room and neurointensive care units. With the advancement of near-infrared spectros- copy (NIRS) and transcranial Doppler, the detection of cerebral ischemia, especially under general anesthesia, has improved tremendously. Multimodal intraoperative monitoring of spinal cord sensory and motor function during surgical correction of adult spinal deformity is feasible and provides useful neurophysiological data with an overall sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 84.3%.40 In the neurointensive care unit, insertion of microdialysis and multipa- rameter biochemical probes into traumatized human brains has confirmed findings. Cytokine production and pro- apoptotic markers have been detected during oxidative stress, and these markers have recovered during enhanced perfusion. Ischemic events have been associated with tissue acidosis, and spontaneous depolarizations have been observed. Use of these monitors in the operating room has occurred. What remains to be totally defined is what val- ues constitute thresholds for interventions. These thresholds have been characterized mostly for NIRS monitoring, and much of this has revolutionized the treatment of patients with the possibility of cerebral hypoperfusion. The development of neuroanesthesia has paralleled advances in neurosurgery. As techniques and procedures have become advanced, so have the techniques and protocols to anesthetize and monitor neurologic function. The overall goal is to provide a good surgical outcome and better quality of life. Procedures will become less invasive with more functional neurosurgery requiring a cooperative patient. This makes the anesthetic management for these procedures even more complex. It is also likely that there will be greater integration of neurosurgery and neuroradi- ology, with greater emphasis on maintaining cerebral vascular function without the effects of inhalational anesthet- ics and opioids. Neurosurgery is ever evolving; the practice of anesthesiology for these procedures will also have to evolve to accommodate the demands of the surgeon and improve patient outcomes. Neuroanesthesia practice will shadow neurosurgical breakthroughs. These changes will accelerate over the next 10years as scientific advances, and the understanding of the diseases we treat enhance the capacity of the anesthesiologist to develop techniques to provide an ideal surgical environment with rapid awakening to assess neurologic function.

This question, albeit a vexing one, is very pertinent in the present day scenario. The answer is evident. A tower of knowledge built on broad and diverse information helps one to prepare for all the eventualities that one may encounter. Anatomy is the basis of every procedure that we perform.

It helps the person improve his or her procedural skills. Finally, it helps him or her to be better equipped to deal with a changing and unpredictable world where knowledge empowers and also acts as a haven of safety. About 100 billion neurons and 10–50 trillion neuroglias make up the brain, which has a mass of about 1300– 1500 g in adult. On average each neuron forms 1000 synapses with other neurons1. The total number of syn- apses, about 1000 trillion, is larger than the number of stars in the galaxy. The central nervous system (CNS) included the brain and the spinal cord and is composed of (1) cerebral hemisphere, (2) diencephalon, (3) basal ganglion, (4) midbrain, (5) pons, (6) medulla, (7) cerebellum, and (8) spinal cord. This chapter will provide information of these parts individually, that is integrated, informative, and relevant to educational need of the neuroanesthesiologists. EMBRYOLOGICAL DIFFERENTIATION OF DIFFERENT PARTS OF BRAIN Knowledge of the embryological development of the brain is necessary to understand the terminology used for the principal part of the adult brain. The development of the brain is dealt with details in the following chapter. ANATOMY OF BRAIN Cerebrum The cerebrum consists of two cerebral hemispheres that are partially connected with each other by corpus cal- losum. Each hemisphere contains a cavity called the lateral ventricle. The cerebrum is arbitrarily divided into five lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, and insula.2 On the lateral surface three sulci (central, lateral or Sylvian, and parietooccipital sulci) and two imaginary lines divide the cerebrum into four lobes (Fig. 1.1). The first imaginary line (lateral parietotemporal line) is drawn from parietooccipital sulcus to preoccipital notch and second (temporo- occipital line) backward continuation of posterior ramus of lateral sulcus before it turns upward to meet first line. The central sulcus and posterior ramus of Sylvian fissure (SF) separate frontal lobe from parietal lobe and temporal lobe. Posteriorly parietooccipital sulcus and lateral parietotemporal line separate occipital lobe from parietal lobe and temporal lobe. Temporal and parietal lobes are separate by posterior ramus of SF and temporo-occipital line (Fig. 1.1). The cerebral cortex is the outermost sheet of neural tissue of the cerebrum whereas white matter lies in the center. Cerebral cortex is folded into sulci and gyri, which actually increases the surface area of cortex. Sulci include the central lateral and parietooccipital. The central sulcus begins by cutting the superomedial border of the hemisphere a little behind the midpoint between the frontal and parietal lobe. It runs on the superolateral surface obliquely downward and forward for about 8–10cm and ends a slight above the posterior ramus of lateral sulcus. It separates precentral gyrus (motor area) from postcen- tral gyrus (sensory area) (Figs. 1.2 and 1.3). It was originally called the fissure of Rolando or the Rolandic fissure.

  • 41. 1. NEUROANATOMY 6 I. NEUROANATOMY The lateral sulcus or Sylvian fissure (SF) is one of the earliest-developing sulci of the human brain. It first appears around the 14th gestational week.3 It is the deepest and most prominent of the cortical sulci. The lateral sulcus (SF) separates frontal and parietal lobes from temporal lobe. It begins on the superomedial margin. The SF starts on basal and extends to the lateral surface of the brain. It has both a superficial part and a deep part. Superficial part has a stem and three rami (Figs. 1.2 and 1.3). The anterior portion of the deep part (Sylvian cistern) is called the sphenoidal compartment and the posterior part is called the operculoinsular compartment. SF is an important corridor in neu- rosurgery as it connects the surface of anterior part of brain to its depth with all the neural and vascular components along the way. The structures within the reach through the Transylvian approach include middle cerebral artery; optic nerves; internal carotid artery; and its branched lamina terminalis, insula, basal ganglia, and interpeduncular fossa. Parietooccipital sulcus begins on the medial surface of hemisphere nearly 5cm in front of the occipital pole (Fig. 1.4). The upper end of the sulcus reaches the superomedial border to meet the calcarine sulcus, and a small part of it is seen on the superolateral surface. Frontal Lobe The frontal lobe is an area in the brain of mammals, located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned anterior to (in front of) the parietal lobe and superior and anterior to the temporal lobes. A prefrontal sulcus runs downward and forward parallel to the central sulcus. The area between it and central sulcus is the precentral gyrus. Two sulcus run horizontally anterior to precentral gyrus, i.e., superior and inferior frontal sulcus and divide the region into superior, middle, and inferior frontal gyri (Fig. 1.3). The frontal lobe contains most of the dopamine-sensitive neurons in the cerebral cortex associated with reward, attention, short-term memory tasks, planning, and motivation. Temporal Lobes Temporal lobes are bounded by SF superiorly and temporo-occipital and lateral parietotemporal line posteriorly (Fig. 1.3). The temporal lobe has two sulci, superior and inferior, that run parallel to the posterior ramus of the lateral sulcus and divide superiolateral surface into superior, middle, and inferior temporal gyri (Fig. 1.3). The temporal lobes are involved in the retention of visual memories, processing sensory input, comprehending language, storing new memories, emotion, and deriving meaning.4 FIGURE 1.4 Brain surface anatomy, view of medial surface of right hemisphere. 1.

  • 42. ANATOMY OF BRAIN 7 I. NEUROANATOMY Parietal Lobe The parietal lobe is positioned superior to the occipital lobe and posterior to the frontal lobe. The parietal lobe is bounded anteriorly by central sulcus, inferiorly by SF and temporo-occipital line, medially by interhemispheric fissure, and posteriorly by parietotemporal line. The two main sulci are postcentral sulcus, which run downward and forward parallel to central sulcus, and intraparietal sulci, which are directed posteriorly and inferiorly toward occipital pole. Thus divide the parietal lobe into postcentral gyrus, superior parietal lobule, and inferior parietal lobule (Fig. 1.3). The upturn posterior end of the posterior ramus of lateral sulcus or SF extends into inferior parietal lobule, also superior and inferior temporal sulci turn upward to enter into this lobule and constitute supramarginal, angular gyri, and arcus temporo-occipitalis (Fig. 1.3). The parietal lobe integrates sensory information from different modalities, particularly determining spatial sense and navigation. For example, it comprises somatosensory cortex and the dorsal stream of the visual system. This enables regions of the parietal cortex to map objects perceived visually into body coordinate positions. Several por- tions of the parietal lobe are important in language processing. Just posterior to the central sulcus lies the postcentral gyrus. This area of the cortex is responsible for somatosensation.5 The occipital lobule occupies space behind the lateral parietotemporal line. It has a number of short lobules divided by short sulci. A horizontal sulci, lateral to occipital sulcus divides the lobe into superior and inferior occipi- tal gyri (Fig. 1.3). A vertical strip anterior to curved lunate sulcus is the gyrus descendens. The transverse occipital sulcus is located in the uppermost part of the occipital lobe. A strip superiolateral to this sulcus is arcus parietooc- cipitalis. The occipital lobe is the visual processing center of the brain containing most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex.6 Insula is a portion of the cerebral cortex folded deep within the lateral sulcus. This area grows less than its sur- rounding areas during development and thus lies deep and not seen from surface view (Fig. 1.5). The surrounding cortical areas are called opercula such as frontal opercula, frontoparietal opercula, and temporal opercula. The insula are believed to be involved in consciousness and play a role in diverse functions usually associated to emotion or the regulation of the body’s homeostasis. These functions include perception, self-awareness, cognitive functioning, and interpersonal experience. Two hemispheres are attached with each other by corpus callosum. On the medial surface above the corpus cal- losum there are many sulci and gyri (Fig. 1.4). The most prominent sulcus is the cingulate sulcus, which follows the curve course parallel of corpus callosum. The area between the cingulate sulcus and corpus callosum is the gyrus cinguli. Above the cingulate sulcus, large anterior part is medial frontal gyrus and posteriorly paracentral lobule (Fig. 1.4). Behind the paracentral lobule, two major sulci, parietooccipital sulcus and calcarine sulcus, cut the area into a triangular area called the cuneus. Between parietooccipital sulcus and paracentral lobule, a quadrangular area is called precuneus, which is anteriorly separated from gyrus cinguli by suprasplenial sulcus.

  • 43. 1. NEUROANATOMY 8 I. NEUROANATOMY The majority of the space of cerebral hemisphere deep to the cortex is full of the white matter. There are some important structures that are embedded within the white matter. On coronal section the corpus callosum is seen as a strip connecting both the hemispheres (Fig. 1.5). Third ventricle is situated in midline just below corpus callosum. Thalamus and hypothalamus, which are derived from diencephalon, lie adjacent to lateral wall of the third ventricle. Caudate nucleus is situated above and lateral to thalamus. Another gray matter mass lentiform nucleus lies more lateral and just deep to insula. There is a strip of gray matter between insula and lentiform nucleus called claustrum (Fig. 1.5). The caudate nucleus, lentiform nucleus, claustrum along with some other gray matter nucleus are (derived from telencephalon) collectively mentioned as basal nuclei or basal ganglia. There is a white matter, an internal cap- sule that lies between thalamus and lentiform nucleus (Fig. 1.5). The white matter that radiates from the upper part of internal capsule to the cortex is called corona radiate. Functional Areas (of Cerebral Cortex) Korbinian Brodmann was a German neurologist who studied the brain in the early part of the 20th century.7 Brodmann originally defined and numbered (from 1 to 52) different areas of cerebral cortex based on cytoarchitecture or how the cells were functionally organized (Box 1.1). Brodmann areas have been discussed, debated, refined, and renamed exhaustively for nearly a century and remain the most widely used and frequently cited cytoarchitectural organization of the human cortex.8 On the basis of function, regions of the cerebral cortex are divided into three functional categories of areas (Fig. 1.6). (1) Primary sensory areas, which receive signals from the sensory nerves and tracts by way of relay nuclei in the thalamus. Primary sensory areas include the somatosensory cortex in the parietal lobe, visual area of the occipital lobe, and the auditory area in parts of the temporal lobe and insular cortex. (2) Primary BOX 1.1 I M P O RTA N T B R O D M A N N A R E A S Frontal lobe contains areas that Brodmann identified as involved in cognitive functioning and in speech and language (Fig. 1.8). t Area 4 corresponds to the precentral gyrus or primary motor area. t Area 6 is the premotor or supplemental motor area. t Area 8 is anterior of the premotor cortex. It facilitates eye movements and is involved in visual reflexes as well as pupil dilation and constriction. t Areas 9, 10, and 11 are anterior to area 8. They are involved in cognitive processes such as reasoning and judgment which may be collectively called biological intelligence. t Area 44 is Broca’s area. Parietal lobe plays a role in somatosensory processes (Fig. 1.8). t Areas 3, 2, and 1 are located on the primary sensory strip, with area 3 being superior to the other two. These are somastosthetic areas, meaning that they are the primary sensory areas for touch and kinesthesia. t Areas 5, 7, and 40 are found posterior to the primary sensory strip and correspond to the presensory to sensory association areas. t Area 39 is the angular gyrus. Temporal lobe: Areas that are involved in the process- ing of auditory information and semantics as well as the appreciation of smell (Fig. 1.8). t Area 41 is the primary auditory area. t Area 42 is immediately inferior to area 41 and also involved in the detection and recognition of speech. The processing done in this area of the cortex provides a more detailed analysis than that done in area 41. t Areas 21 and 22 are the auditory association areas. Both areas are divided into two parts; one half of each area lies on either side of area 42. t Area 37 is found on the posterior–inferior part of the temporal lobe. Occipital lobe contains areas that process visual stimuli (Fig. 1.8). t Area 17 is the primary visual area. t Areas 18 and 19 are the secondary visual areas.
  • 44. ANATOMY OF BRAIN 9 I. NEUROANATOMY motor cortex, which sends axons down to motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord and finally inner- vate voluntary skeletal muscles; (3) remaining parts of the cortex, which are called the association areas. These areas receive input from the sensory areas and lower parts of the brain which integrate sensory information with emotional states, memories, learning, and rational thought processes that we call perception, thought, and decision-making. Motor areas—The motor area is classically located in precentral gyrus on the superiolateral surface of the hemi- sphere and in anterior part of paracentral lobule. It is shaped like a pair of headphones stretching from ear to ear (Fig. 1.6). Specific area within the motor cortex controls voluntary muscle activity on the opposite part of body. The body is represented on the motor strip in an upside–down fashion (Fig. 1.7). The lower parts of the body, such as the FIGURE 1.6 Traditional concept of functional areas on the superolateral aspect of the cerebral hemisphere (left sided). FIGURE 1.7 The motor homunculus in primary motor cortex. Coronal section anterior view of the left hemisphere.
  • 45. 1. NEUROANATOMY 10 I. NEUROANATOMY feet and the legs, receive motor movement commands from the superior part of the precentral gyrus (motor strip). Parts of the face, on the other hand are innervated by the inferior part of the motor strip. The motor strip extends down some distance into the longitudinal cerebral fissure. The portion inside this fissure is its medial aspect. The part on the lateral surface of the hemisphere is called its lateral aspect. The medial cortex controls the movements of the body from the hips on down while the lateral aspect sends commands to the upper body including the larynx, face, hands, shoulders, and trunk (Fig. 1.7). The medial and lateral aspects of the motor strip have different blood supplies. Blood comes to the medial area from the anterior cerebral artery while the lateral cortex is supplied by the middle cerebral artery. Premotor Area There is supplementary motor area on and above the superior part of cingulate sulcus on the medial aspect hemi- sphere that reaches to the premotor cortex (Brodmann areas 6 and 8) on the lateral surface of brain. The cortical area in inferior frontal gyrus corresponds to motor speech area or speech area of Broca (Brodmann areas 44 and 45) and frontal eye area (Fig. 1.8). Lesion into the motor speech area of Broca results in aphasia even the muscles concerned are intact. In 95% of right-handers do have left-hemisphere dominance for language functions, only around 19% of left-handers have right-hemisphere language dominance, with another 20% or so processing language functions in both hemispheres.9 Sensory Areas From the specific nuclei of the thalamus, neurons are projected into two somatosensory areas of the cortex: somato- sensory area I in postcentral gyrus and somatosensory area II in the wall of the SF (Fig. 1.6). The arrangement of the thalamic fibers in somatosensory area I is such that the part of the body is represented in order along the postcentral gyrus, with leg on the top and head at the foot of the gyrus. The area of the cortex that receives sensation from a part FIGURE 1.8 Brodmann areas in the neocortex. A number of important Brodmann areas have been marked out in the figure.
