RESUMO
Perioperative stroke is one of the complications that can occur during the surgical procedure and up to 30 days after it. A 52-year-old woman with no neurological symptoms and a diagnosis of intracardiac mass. She underwent cardiac surgery with resection of the tumor that was compatible with atrial myxoma. In the immediate postoperative, she presented neurological symptoms and was diagnosed with basal ganglia infarction of embolic etiology. Perioperative stroke appears most frequently in cardiovascular surgery but is rarely reported in heart tumor resection surgery.
El accidente cerebrovascular perioperatorio es una de las complicaciones que pueden presentarse durante el proceder quirúrgico y hasta los 30 días posteriores al mismo. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 52 años, sin síntomas neurológicos y con diagnóstico de masa intracardiaca. Se le realizó cirugía cardiaca con resección del tumor, que resultó compatible con mixoma auricular. En el posoperatorio inmediato presentó sintomatología neurológica y se diagnosticó infarto de ganglios basales de etiología embólica. El accidente cerebrovascular perioperatorio aparece con mayor frecuencia en las cirugías cardiovasculares, pero rara vez es reportado en cirugías de exéresis de tumores cardiacos.

Abstract A common element of internal thoracic artery harvesting techniques is a distal vascular clamp placement at the end of the procedure, not only to avoid bleeding, but also to increase the internal hydrostatic pressure, diameter and flow. The logic indicates that the placement of this clamp at the beginning of the dissection will allow the artery to benefit earlier from these advantages. After more than five years of experience, we present a modification in the classical technique of skeletonized harvesting of the internal thoracic artery, consisting of artery distal occlusion at the beginning of the procedure. Some of its advantages are discussed.
