We sought to review the clinical presentation, imaging characteristics, endovascular treatment (EVT), and outcomes of IAVS in infants presenting to a quaternary pediatric referral center over one decade.MethodsA retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database was performed of all infants diagnosed with IAVS between January 2011 and January 2021 in a quaternary pediatric referral center.

Moreover, posterior circulation aneurysms in kids tend to be larger in size, many of them being giant dissecting types, and treatment of them is often challenging. Treatment of giant dissecting aneurysms, especially involving the Basilar artery is difficult due to strategic location and haemodynamic factors. Use of reconstructive techniques viz. flow-diverters and braided stents is difficult in children because of the lack of standard protocol for use of antiplatelet therapy and the need for prolonged use of the same. Continuous growth of parent vessel is also suggested as a pitfall for the use of a flow diverter/ braided stent which has a fixed caliber. Carefully planned endovascular parent or feeder branch artery occlusion (FAO) is a time-tested method to achieve flow reversal or favourable flow modifications in an arterial segment harbouring dissecting aneurysm. Here, in this case report, we describe a case of a ruptured distal giant basilar artery dissecting aneurysm in a 10-year-old boy treated with flow diversion by FAO. The dominant left vertebral artery was occluded, thereby diverting flow from the right vertebral artery towards the left posterior inferior cerebellar artery and decreasing flow through the aneurysm.

Limited data exists on its effectiveness in the setting of low-and-middle-income countries. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MT in a tertiary level public hospital in Cape Town, South Africa.MethodsPatients with acute ischaemic stroke presenting consecutively to Groote Schuur Hospital between 1 January 2018 to 1 January 2022 with proximal intracranial occlusion in the anterior circulation treated with MT within 6 h from onset using computed tomography (CT) and CT angiography imaging-based protocols were evaluated. Demographic, clinical, radiological and procedural data were obtained from the stroke unit database. Recanalisation was evaluated post-procedure by modified Treatment in Cerebral Infarction score (mTICI). Functional independence (modified Rankin scores 0-2) and mortality at 90 days were also assessed.ResultsThrombectomies were performed in 84 patients during the study period. The median age was 56 years (interquartile range, IQR) and 51% of participants were female. Median National Institute of Health Stroke Score was 18 and median baseline Alberta Stroke Programme Early CT score was 8. Bridging thrombolysis was given to 65% of participants. Median time from symptom onset to reperfusion was 339 min (IQR). Successful recanalisation (mTICI 2b/3) was obtained in 62%. At 90 days, 34% of participants gained functional independence and mortality was 34%.ConclusionThis study demonstrated similar rates of recanalisation and functional independence to that seen in trials in high-income countries using basic imaging despite a higher mortality and longer median time to reperfusion. This data supports the effectiveness of MT in a tertiary level public hospital in South Africa despite the challenges of providing emergent stroke care in a resource-constrained setting.</p>","PeriodicalId":14380,"journal":{"name":"Interventional Neuroradiology","volume":" ","pages":"652-659"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12475320/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9545751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
