The cerebrovascular disease (CVD) during the child-hood is rare and interferes drastically in the develop-ment of child. The aim of this study is to relate the neu-ropsychological findings in children with ischemic or hemorrhagic CVD, to variables that interfere in the dis-ease, for example: recurrence, etiology, the age of the installation.

Thirty-two children with prior history of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, of both sexes in the age group from 6 to 16 years, were subdued to an neuropsychological, intel-lectual, visual-motor, school performance, cerebral blood low evaluation; among others, the sample was selected from the Group of Studies in CVD in childhood and ado-lescence database of the HC of UNICAMP.

Twenty-ive children also the hemorrhagic with 31.25%,

there was no difference in relation of sex, recurrence, sei-zures and the age of installation of the CVA. It was no-ticed that 87% grew with motor sequelae and 34.3% with an intellectual reduction.

The intellectual performance was more damaged fac-ing these situations: sickle cell disease, premature age of the installation, recurrence, evolution of convulsive cri-sis, two hemispheres attacked, cortical-subcortical lesion and motor sequelae. It was checked, 18.7% of the children in the experimental group could not respond to the bat-tery of instruments, suggesting that the lesion in the cor-tical an subcorcor-tical areas in early age produced severe cognitive damages.

Key words: cerebrovascular disease, intelligence quo-tient, childhood, SPECT, recurrence.

SUGAR CANE BIOPOLYMER MEMBRANE AS DURA MATER SUBSTITUTE IN WISTAR RATS (ABSTRACT)*. THESIS. RECIFE, 2008.

FREDERICO DE MELO TAVARES DE LIMA**

Background: Duraplasty is necessary in nearly 30% of all neurological surgeries.

Objective: To determine the utilization of the sugar cane biopolymer membrane patch as a dural substitute in rats.

Method: Forty adults males Wistar rats weighing 300– 440g were randomly divided into two groups: a control and an experimental. All animals were anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of chloral hydrate in solution of 10%, and placed in a prone position. Bilateral frontopa-rietal craniectomy was performed, and a dural defect was created. The arachnoid underlying defect was disrupted with a narrow hook. In the control animals, the defect was repaired with a disc of ePTFE. The experimental group re-ceived a membrane of sugar cane biopolymer over the cerebral cortex. No sutures in the dural patch were used in all cases. At the end of the procedure, the scalp was closed primarily in two layers. The rats were killed at 120

days. The heads were ixed by an intra-arterial injection of 10% formalin solution, followed by immersion in 10% for-malin solution. After seven days of ixation, the specimens were embedded in parafin, and the dural substitute and subjacent brain were collected en bloc. Histological sec-tions of the biopsies were stained with hematoxilyn/eo-sin and evaluation was performed comparing healing and inlammatory reaction.
