Abstract
Background
Hyperperfusion syndrome (HPS) is one of the most serious complications after carotid artery stenting (CAS). Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a noninvasive method for assessing cerebral perfusion. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of ASL compared to that of SPECT in evaluating changes in intracranial blood flow during the perioperative period of CAS.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed prospectively collected data from 49 cases of CAS conducted for symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. We calculated the relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) from ASL (post labeling delay [PLD] of 1500 ms and 2500 ms) and SPECT, both pre- and post-CAS. Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) was assessed using SPECT with an acetazolamide challenge. We defined the change rate from PLD 1500 ms to 2500 ms before CAS as ΔrASL.
Results
Hyperperfusion phenomenon was observed in four cases (8.2 %), with one case (2.0 %) resulting in cerebral hemorrhage and diagnosed as HPS. Positive correlations were noted between ASL and SPECT at both pre- and post-CAS (r = 0.42–0.65, p < 0.01). A negative correlation was found between ΔrASL obtained from the two PLDs before CAS and CVR (r=-0.41, p < 0.01).
Conclusions
ASL using two PLDs is a useful method for evaluating changes in CBF during the perioperative period of CAS.
期刊介绍:
This International journal, Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, publishes articles on clinical neurosurgery and neurology and the related neurosciences such as neuro-pathology, neuro-radiology, neuro-ophthalmology and neuro-physiology.
The journal has a broad International perspective, and emphasises the advances occurring in Asia, the Pacific Rim region, Europe and North America. The Journal acts as a focus for publication of major clinical and laboratory research, as well as publishing solicited manuscripts on specific subjects from experts, case reports and other information of interest to clinicians working in the clinical neurosciences.
