Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Controlled hypotension, hypothermia, elective circulatory arrest, and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary bypass are all measures that assist in controlling blood loss during a craniotomy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Kyphoplasty is performed percutaneously with the introduction of a catheter and balloon assembly into the collapsed vertebral body. The balloon is expanded with contrast media then removed and replaced with bone cement.
