Abstrakt: Hyperlactatemia is common during tumor craniotomy, but the underlying pathophysiology is unclear. This study measured simultaneous arterial and jugular‐bulb lactate concentrations in patients undergoing brain tumor craniotomy to investigate the hypothesis that hyperlactatemia was associated with a net cerebrovascular lactate input. In 20 patients, arterial and jugular‐bulb blood was collected hourly from the start of surgery to 6 h postoperatively for measurement of lactate, glucose, and oxygen concentration. For each marker, data were analyzed using a linear mixed‐effects model with jugular‐bulb concentration as dependent variable, arterial concentration as fixed effect, and patient as random effect. Furthermore, we generated regression lines between arterial and jugular‐bulb concentrations. The slope of the regression line between arterial and jugular‐bulb lactate was 0.95 (95% CI 0.93–0.97, R2 = 0.98), indicating that increasing arterial lactate levels were associated with an increasingly positive net cerebrovascular balance (net input). The line crossed the identity line at 2.86 (95% CI 0.57–5.16) mmol/L, indicating that lower levels of lactate were associated with a negative net cerebrovascular balance (net output). This suggests a switch from net lactate output during normolactatemia towards net input during hyperlactatemia. Hyperlactatemia in tumor‐craniotomy patients probably does not originate from the brain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
