摘要
目的记录加纳阿克拉一家中心接受数字减影血管造影术（DSA）的加纳人颅内动脉瘤的位置、大小和多发性：我们对所有接受数字减影血管造影术（DSA）确诊为颅内动脉瘤的患者的病历进行了回顾性观察：回顾了2018年3月至2020年3月期间Euracare高级诊断和心脏中心的患者病历：31名患者在研究期间被确认患有各种颅内动脉瘤（IAs）。使用核对表提取患者的年龄、性别和IAs类型，并使用Microsoft Excel for Windows 2016进行分析：无：主要结果测量：颅内动脉瘤的类型和分布：患者年龄范围为26-76岁，平均年龄为（45.5±14.3）岁。患有颅内动脉瘤的男性和女性的平均年龄分别为（45.5±15.9）岁和（46.7 51.3±12.9）岁。最常见的IA位于后交通动脉（PCOM），占54.8%（95%CI：36.0，72.7），其次是前交通动脉（ACOM），占32.3%（95%CI：16.7，51.4）。大多数动脉瘤的直径小于 7 毫米，占 89.2%（33/37）。25个（80.6%）动脉瘤为单发：结论：最常见的动脉瘤出现在PCOM和ACOM，在接受检查的加纳成年人中，动脉瘤破裂的年龄往往较小，破裂的大小也较小。建议早期发现并治疗直径小于7毫米的IA：未声明。
Objective: To document the location, size, and multiplicity of intracranial aneurysms in Ghanaians who have undergone digital subtraction angiography (DSA) at a single centre in Accra, Ghana.
Design: We conducted a retrospective observational review of the medical records of all patients diagnosed with intracranial aneurysms on DSA.
Setting: Patients' medical records at Euracare Advanced Diagnostic and Heart Centre were reviewed between March 2018 and March 2020.
Participants: Thirty-one patients were identified with various intracranial aneurysms (IAs) within the study period. Patients' ages, sex, and types of IAs were extracted using a checklist and analysed using Microsoft Excel for Windows 2016.
Interventions: None.
Main outcome measures: The prevalence of types and distribution of intracranial aneurysms.
Results: The age range of the patients was 26-76 years, with a mean age of 45.5±14.3 years. The mean age of men and women with IA was 45.5 ±15.9 years and 46.7 51.3±12.9 years, respectively. The most common IAs were located in the posterior communicating artery (PCOM) at 54.8% (95%CI: 36.0, 72.7), followed by the anterior communicating (ACOM), which constituted 32.3% (95%CI: 16.7, 51.4). The majority, 89.2% (33/37) of these aneurysms were less than 7mm in diameter. Single aneurysms were present in 25 (80.6%).
Conclusion: The most common IAs were found in the PCOM and ACOM, and IAs tend to rupture at a younger age and smaller size among the Ghanaian adults examined. Early detection and treatment of IAs less than 7mm in diameter is recommended.
