Endovascular treatment of 467 consecutive intracranial aneurysms in Oulu University Hospital:angiographic and clinical resultsIsokangas, J.-M. (Juha-Matti) 22 December 2006 (has links)
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to analyze the angiographic and clinical results of endovascularly treated intracranial aneurysms in Oulu University Hospital, Finland.
The study population consisted of 416 consecutive patients (467 aneurysms, 332 ruptured), who were referred for endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysm(s) between December 1993 and July 2004. Technical failures were analyzed for an assesment of technical feasibility. Angiographic results were assessed using modified Raymond Classification. Clinical results were analyzed from patient files using the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Patient, aneurysm, and procedure related variables were tested with an intention to find the predictors of the angiographic and clinical outcome. The clinical effects on presenting symptoms were analyzed for a subgroup of patients with a symptomatic unruptured aneurysm (n = 30). The mean results on technical feasibility, complications, and angiographic results were separately assessed for three time periods (1993–1997, 1998–2000 and 2001–2004) to demonstrate potential significant changes in outcome.
Endovascular treatment of saccular aneurysms was technically feasible in 91.4% of the treatments. Initially, 25.7% of the aneurysms were completely occluded, 57.9% had a neck remnant, and 16.3% remained incompletely occluded. In follow-up, the rates for complete occlusions, neck remnants and incomplete occlusions were 37.6%, 49.7% and 12.7%, respectively. Small aneurysm size predicted complete aneurysm occlusion, while a wide aneurysm neck and location in the posterior circulation predicted incomplete occlusion. In follow-up (mean 38.2 months), 78.1% of the patients with a ruptured aneurysm and 92.3% of the patients with an unruptured aneurysm had resumed independent life (GOS 4-5). The predictors of good outcome were young age, good preprocedural clinical condition, small amount of blood in CT scan, and uncomplicated procedure. Ten of the treated aneurysms involved intracranial bleeding in follow-up, and the annual risk for bleeding after endovascular treatment was 0.95% among the patients with ruptured aneurysms and 0.33% among those with unruptured aneurysms. The risk of bleeding was associated with larger aneurysm size and lower occlusion grade. In the subgroup of symptomatic unruptured aneurysms, 53.4% of the patients showed either resolution or improvement of the symptoms after treatment. The rates of procedural complications, morbidity, and mortality were 16.5%, 6.7%, and 1.7%, respectively. The risk for procedural complications was higher when the balloon remodeling technique was used and lower in retreatments. Technical feasibility (85.6%, 90.6%, and 95.7%, respectively) and the percentage of complete occlusions (initially 16.5%, 23.0%, and 32.9%, respectively) were significantly improved by increased experience, while no statistical difference was detected in the total procedural complication rates (15.4%, 15.7%, and 18.3%, respectively) or the combined procedural morbidity and mortality rates (8.0%, 8.3%, and 9.1%, respectively). All six dissecting aneurysms treated with parent artery occlusion or the stent remodeling technique resulted in complete occlusions.
The present results confirmed endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms as a feasible, safe, and effective method in preventing further bleeding of aneurysms. Increased experience in a single center improved the feasibility of the treatment as well as the angiographic results.

Flow Diversion for Reconstruction of Intradural Vertebral Artery Dissecting Aneurysms Causing Subarachnoid Hemorrhage—A Retrospective Study From Four Neurovascular CentersMaybaum, Jens, Henkes, Hans, Aguilar-Pérez, Marta, Hellstern, Victoria, Gihr, Georg Alexander, Härtig, Wolfgang, Reisberg, André, Mucha, Dirk, Schüngel, Marie-Sophie, Brill, Richard, Quäschling, Ulf, Hoffmann, Karl-Titus, Schob, Stefan 27 March 2023 (has links)
Objective: Dissecting aneurysms (DAs) of the vertebrobasilar territory manifesting
with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) are associated with significant morbi-mortality,
especially in the case of re-hemorrhage. Sufficient reconstruction of the affected vessel
is paramount, in particular, if a dominant vertebral artery (VA) is impacted. Reconstructive
options include stent-assisted coiling and flow diversion (FD). The latter is technically less
challenging and does not require catheterization of the fragile aneurysm. Our study aims
to report a multicentric experience with FD for reconstruction of DA in acute SAH.
Materials and Methods: This retrospective study investigated 31 patients (age: 30–78
years, mean 55.5 years) who had suffered from SAH due to a DA of the dominant VA.
The patients were treated between 2010 and 2020 in one of the following German
neurovascular centers: University Hospital Leipzig, Katharinenhospital Stuttgart, BG
Hospital Bergmannstrost Halle/Saale, and Heinrich-Braun-Klinikum Zwickau. Clinical
history, imaging, implanted devices, and outcomes were reviewed for the study.
Results: Reconstruction with flow-diverting stents was performed in all cases. The
p64 was implanted in 14 patients; one of them required an additional balloon expandable stent to reconstruct severe stenosis in the target segment. One case
demanded additional liquid embolization after procedural rupture, and in one case,
p64 was combined with a PED. Further 13 patients were treated exclusively with
the PED. The p48MW-HPC was used in two patients, one in combination with two
additional Silk Vista Baby (SVB). Moreover, one patient was treated with a single SVB,
one with a SILK+. Six patients died [Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) 1]. Causes of
death were periprocedural re-hemorrhage, thrombotic occlusion of the main pulmonary
artery, and delayed parenchymal hemorrhage. The remaining three patients died in the
acute–subacute phase related to the severity of the initial hemorrhage and associated
comorbidities. One patient became apallic (GOS 2), whereas two patients had severe
disability (GOS 3) and four had moderate disability (GOS 4). Eighteen patients showed a
complete recovery (GOS 5).
Conclusion: Reconstruction of VA-DA in acute SAH with flow-diverting stents is a
promising approach. However, the severity of the condition is reflected by high overall
morbi-mortality, even despite technically successful endovascular treatment.

Tratamento endovascular das dissecções e pseudoaneurismas da artéria vertebral. / Endovascular treatment of dissections and pseudoaneurysms of the vertebral artery.Puglia Junior, Paulo 11 November 1999 (has links)
As dissecções da artéria vertebral causam acidentes vasculares cerebrais isquêmicos e hemorrágicos. A dissecção arterial é a ruptura da sua parede com formação de hematoma intramural. Podem ser espontâneas, acometendo a artéria vertebral extra ou intracraniana. O tratamento em geral é clínico, porém em alguns casos está indicada intervenção. A via endovascular é uma importante alternativa, permitindo o tratamento específico da lesão em alguns casos, mas na maioria sacrificando a artéria vertebral, após teste de tolerância à oclusão. Com o objetivo de analisar os aspectos clínicos e técnicos do tratamento endovascular, estudamos de forma prospectiva 15 pacientes. Três apresentavam dissecções traumáticas (todas extracranianas) e 12 espontâneas, dos quais dois tiveram traumatismos menores como desencadeantes. Cinco pacientes apresentaram dissecções extracranianas, oito, intracranianas e dois, combinadas. No grupo das extracranianas, a principal indicação de tratamento foi a presença de fístula arteriovenosa, em três dos cinco pacientes. No grupo da intracranianas, foi a presença de hemorragia meníngea. Nos quatro pacientes com acidente vascular isquêmico, a indicação de tratamento deveu-se à presença de pseudoaneurismas que não involuíram com tratamento clínico. Nesse grupo, dois pacientes tinham dissecção extracraniana, um, intra e um, combinada. Um paciente apresentou intolerância à oclusão e foi encaminhado para tratamento conservador. Dos 14 pacientes tratados, um teve como estratégia a oclusão seletiva da lesão, 11 a oclusão da artéria vertebral proximal à lesão e dois oclusão acima e abaixo da lesão. Os materiais utilizados foram balões destacáveis em sete pacientes, molas de destaque livre em 6 e molas eletricamente destacáveis associadas a molas de destaque livre em 1 paciente. Dois pacientes apresentaram complicações do tratamento, e um paciente, recidiva de fístula arteriovenosa, todos resolvidos sem seqüelas. A angiografia controle revelou oclusão total do segmento dissecado ou do pseudoaneurisma em 9 pacientes, reversão do fluxo em quatro e preservação da artéria vertebral com oclusão da lesão em um. Num período de seguimento de 8,6 meses não se registraram recorrências. O tratamento foi eficiente na prevenção de ressangramentos e na trombose dos pseudoaneurismas e apresenta segurança em relação a complicações. / Vertebral artery dissections can cause brain ischemia and hemorrhage.

They may occur either spontaneously or as a consequence of traumatism, in the extracranial or intracranial vertebral artery.

The endovascular approach is an important tool, allowing specific treatment of the lesion in some cases, but sacrificing the vertebral artery in most cases. With the aim of analyze the clinical and technical aspects of the endovascular treatment, we studied prospectively 15 patients treated by endovascular approach. Three presented traumatic dissections (all extracranial) and 12 spontaneous dissections, two of which after minor traumatic events. Five patients had extracranial dissections, eight, intracranial and two, combined. In the extracranial dissection group, the main indication for treatment was the presence of an arteriovenous fistula (three of five patients). In the intracranial group, it was subarachnoid hemorrhage. Four patients presenting with brain isquemia were treated because of pseudoaneurysms that did not resolve in clinical treatment. In this group 2 patients had extracranial dissections, one had intracranial and one had both. One patient did not tolerate occlusion and was treated clinically. Fourteen patients were treated by endovascular means, one with selective lesion occlusion, 12 with proximal vertebral artery occlusion and two with proximal and distal vertebral artery occlusion. The embolic material were detachable balloons in 7 patients, platinum microcoils in 6 patients and electrically detachable platinum microcoils and platinum microcoils in one patient. Two patients presented complications, and one presented recurrence of an arteriovenous fistula, all resolved without sequelae. Angiographic controls disclosed total occlusion of the segment with dissection or of the pseudoaneurysm in 9 patients, retrograde flow in 4 and vertebral artery preservation with selective lesion occlusion in 1. During a mean follow-up period of 8,6 months no recurrence was observed. The treatment was efficient in preventing recurrent hemorrhage and promoting pseudoaneurysms thrombosis, besides it was a safe treatment option.
