Abstract

The introduction of profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest into complex neurosurgical procedures coincided with the refinement of this technique in patients undergoing congenital cardiac and aortic arch repairs. 1–3 The use of deep hypothermia and total circulatory arrest (DHTCA) for a neurosurgical operation was initially described in 1960 by Woodhall.4 A circulatory arrest of 10 minutes at 4°C was employed to facilitate drainage of a large subcortical tumor cyst in a 39-year-old man with metastatic carcinoma of the lung. Cannulation for pulmonary bypass (CPB) was via the femoral artery and jugular vein. The patient recovered uneventfully from this procedure yet succumbed to his pulmonary disease some 3 months later.
