Analysis of the level of a laboratory marker of cerebral ischemia with an assessment of neurocognitive status in the surgical treatment of pathological tortuosity of the ICA

This article analyzes the laboratory marker of cerebral ischemia at various stages of treatment with the assessment of the neurocognitive status of patients by a specialized questionnaire at the pre- and postoperative stages, depending on the degree of cerebrovascular insufficiency. As a result, it was revealed that the level of the NSE marker is statistically significantly lower with the use of a temporary shunt (17.5±3.4 mcg/l) than with operations without a shunt (20.1 ±2.7 mcg/l) (p
